Retirement income policies in Australia and New Zealand : facing the fiscal challenge from an ageing population

Chartered Accountants Australia & New Zealand have released a new report “Ageing Population: Do we understand and accept the challenge?”. That report draws on NZIER's research report.
The NZIER report focused on the attitudes of Kiwis and Aussies to the challenges posed by an ageing population and the degree of support for a range of changes to retirement incomes policies. A particular feature of the research was it builds on an earlier survey commissioned by NZ’s Retirement Commissioner in 2014. The new survey undertaken by ResearchNow finds striking similarities between the attitudes of Kiwis and Aussies to retirement income policies.
