WHITE PAPER - Great Expectations: Retirement realities for older New Zealanders

Abstract

This report is the second in a three-part series seeking to understand Kiwi’s attitudes to retirement savings. It delves into the attitudes and expectations of older New Zealanders and sets out the results of research. FSC commissioned Horizon Research to interview 2,199 adults, a representative sample of the national 18+ population and gathered more than 3,900 comments from those interviewed. The research allowed FSC to estimate for the first time the total wealth New Zealanders expect to take into retirement. It also provides insights into where New Zealanders are under or over estimating how financially well off they will be after they stop paid work.
