If you mean annuity rates
Sloppy writing - I should have said 'pension funds'
Annuity rates are surely actuarially based on life expectancy tables but this potential 'benefit' may take sometime to come through ........
I will not hold my breath, but on second thoughts maybe that is the answer?
Back of the envelope figures show current overall 2% mortality rate,
With a population distribution about 20-25% over 65
Would yield a mortality rate of around 10% for over 65s
Current life expectancy is about 20 -23 years at age of 65,
(currently lower, but was anticipated to rise).
My brain now hurts, anybody else like to try to work the impact on future life expectancy!
