The second topic for the afternoon drew on a paper written for the Actuaries Financial Services Forum in May 2018 titled “Seven major Trends affecting Australians in Retirement”. The topics covered included the loss of confidence and trust in institutions operating in the retirement income system, reducing home ownership, changing life and health expectancy, growing health and aged care costs, changing work patterns and decreasing age pension dependency.
The next meeting of Investment will be on Friday 1st November 2019 at 2pm in our U3A room.
