The report answers some important questions:
Will traditional retirement patterns persist, or will they be replaced by new models?
How do different cultures perceive older people, and how positive are they about ageing and retirement?
What roles do people expect governments, employers and individuals to play in planning and funding retirement?
How is the role of the family changing, and will older people be able to rely on family support?
The answers to these questions are provocative and potent. They provide new insights that should inform the decisions that governments, financial services providers and individuals take, and the social structures that develop.
