Annual Review Examples
Stepped Lifetime Income
Susan will receive an Annual Retirement Income Review each birthday which may result in her retirement income being adjusted to provide a higher prospect of her income lasting her lifetime.
At aged 84, Susan can choose to alter her Target Age from 94 to 99, which could result in her income potentially being stepped down.
Inflation Adjusted Lifetime Income
Elizabeth will receive an annual increase of 1% p.a applied during her Annual Retirement Income Review each birthday which may result in her retirement income being adjusted to provide a higher prospect of her income lasting her lifetime.
At aged 84, Elizabeth can choose to alter her Target Age from 94 to 99, which could result in her income potentially being stepped down, after which the current 1% p.a. increase would continue.
Smoothed Lifetime Income
Jenny will receive an Annual Retirement Income Review each birthday which may result in her retirement income being adjusted to provide a higher prospect of her income lasting her lifetime.
Jenny’s Target Age is set at 99 throughout her retirement.
