INFORMATION ON REPLACEMENT RATIOS

1. A Replacement Ratio is a person’s gross income after retirement, divided by his or her gross income before retirement.

2. A Replacement Ratio helps a person understand whether they are saving enough for retirement.

3. In a recent study carried out by Zamara for 65,000 people, the average replacement ratio was found to be 34.0%.

4. A desirable target replacement ratio to enable you to retire comfortably is 75%.

The Income Replacement Ratio tool is a guide to help you to estimate whether you are on track for a comfortable retirement. It is based on your specific circumstances and assumptions that may change over time. All assumptions have an impact on the projections. We recommend you review your position at least annually as your own personal circumstances and market conditions change.

Personal circumstances will include:

Your actual age
Your retirement fund balance
Your salary
Your desired retirement date

For the purposes of the illustration in the tool, the pension at your desired retirement age allows for the following:

A guaranteed pension for life
With increases broadly equal to 75% of inflation (as measured by CPI)
With a pension to your spouse equals to 50% of your pension when you pass away
A five year guarantee period such that if you were to pass away within five years of retirement, the pension continues to your spouse for the balance of the five year period

Assumptions

The following key assumptions have been made for the purposes of the projections in the tool:

An inflation assumption of 7.0%
A 3 year age difference between you and your spouse (where male is older)
Mortality table used is a(55) ultimate
