Such products are readily available in most western countries. Collectively they can be titled Retirement Income Streams and individually they are called Allocated Pensions Market Linked Pensions Lifetime Pensions aka Fixed Term Pensions Allocated and Market Linked Annuities Fixed Term and Lifetime Annuities Conventional and Managed Annuities Managed Annuities Pension Income Withdrawal New Zealand obviously requires such products to be designed, built and available in order to provide New Zealanders with choice in retirement. Especially with the popularity of KiwiSaver which provides scheme members with a lump sum at the age of retirement. There is a requirement that the taxation treatment of such products need to be clarified and more importantly that they receive preferential tax treatment. Research presented at Portfolio Construction Forums show that retirees are out living life expectancy tables, thus increasing the urgency for suitable investment products to be available. And finally New Zealanders need to expand their financial education and understand that one consequence of a low investment return environment is that retirement income streams require capital to be consumed. Peter J Hensley Investment Adviser / Broker New Plymouth - NZ July 2010. Introduction Over the past four decades financial and investment advisers have seen investment markets swing from despair to euphoria to despair. Some will remember the 87 crash, a few more will recall the BT International Fund and all, the systemic collapse of the non bank deposit taking sector. The current bear market has left investors with few investment choices. Those investors that have followed the tried and true investment doctrine of diversification have seen their portfolios survive the ravages of arguably the worst investment market since the 1930s. Admittedly some have survived in better shape than others. The investment advice industry needs to prepare itself for the pending retirement of the baby boomers. Those advisers specialising in building cost effective diversified income biased portfolios realise that our limited investment market simply does not have enough suitable retail products to satisfy demand. Such portfolios demand a wide range of income producing assets. These can be : secured term deposits, secured bonds listed bonds, senior bonds, subordinated bonds capital notes, subordinated capital notes redeemable preference shares, perpetual preference shares dividend paying ordinary shares residential rental commercial property The challenge facing both the DIY investor and professional advisers is having suitable investment products (at appropriate risk levels) available in the right quantities at the right time. Institutional investors by definition have scale and access to products which are simply not available to the small investor. The other challenge is to convince New Zealand investors that consumption of capital is acceptable behaviour in a low return investment environment. To be fair some patient investors recognise the need to start early and are prepared to build their portfolio over time. Experience has shown that it can take up to five years to select a range of suitable risk related investments to generate a level of income expected. This paper is aimed at typically salaried or waged employees, used to a regular income who arrive at retirement with limited financial knowledge and a lump sum of less than $500,000. This figure has been selected to put a line in the sand. They require a simple cost effective investment product(s) which will supplement New Zealand Super for (hopefully) the term of their natural life. This paper explores some industry options. Retirement Income Streams can typically be classified as a pension or annuity. There is a distinct technical difference between them, however this distinction is lost to those outside of the industry. Both will result in the consumption of capital however certain annuities can be guaranteed for life, however most pensions have the potential to expire before the beneficiary. Allocated Pension This is when a retiree places a lump sum in to (one or more) collective investment vehicle (managed fund) and the scheme manager arranges for a regular payment (pension) from this account (weekly, monthly, quarterly). It should be noted that Australian authorities have set minimum pension payments that regulate the minimum drawdown percentage. Age of Beneficiary Percentage factor Under 65 4 65 74 5 75 79 6 80 84 7 85 89 9 90 94 11 95 plus 14 It is my understanding that similar percentage factors are legislated in the UK. Aspects to take into account The balance of the account is owned by the beneficiary Pension payments are deducted from account balance Fees and costs are deducted from account balance Investment returns are added (deducted) as appropriate Returns should be tax free Lump sum withdrawals are permitted Beneficiary gets to select risk level Total Management Expense Ratios less than 90 bps Pension payments can be adjusted at anytime When a beneficiary dies, the account balance is available for the estate This product type is simple for investors to understand and comprehend. It would require (a) Tax change to ensure tax free status of investment returns (b) Legislative requirements for enforcement of low management fees -- suggested approx 90 basis points (c) Legislative requirements to set minimum percentage drawdown (d) Assumes consumption of capital (e) Scheme managers to supply choice of investment strategy, including cash / term deposit option (f) Switching between funds permitted (within reason). Market Linked Pension Same as an Allocated Pension with a wider range of investment options including share market(s) exposure. Lifetime Pensions These are also called annuities and are only available from a Life Insurance company. An annuity is a regular income paid to you for an agreed term or for the rest of your life. It is generally supplied by a life insurance company and obviously paid for in advance in one lump sum. In other words you buy a pension They are non- account based meaning that the beneficiary enters into a contract with the insurance company to buy a pension / annuity. Aspects to take into account The insurance company accepts the risk of the longevity of the beneficiary An annuity may come with an agreement that the pension will be paid for a minimum number of years. This means that should the beneficiary die within the guarantee period, then payments will continue (to the estate) until the end of the guarantee period. Payments can be made monthly, quarterly, six monthly etc Can be made on joint lives with payments continuing to the death of the survivor Options are generally available to increase (index) the payment Non-indexed annuities do not keep up with inflation All fees and charges included in the purchase price Payments are tax paid There is no reducing balance to pass to the next generation Fixed Term Pensions The same as an annuity, however the payment term has a fixed final date. Should the beneficiary outlive the maturity date, the payments cease, however should the beneficiary die prior to maturity date, payments will continue (to the estate) until the maturity date. Allocated Annuities Is very similar to an Allocated Pension, however the scheme manager is an Insurance Company rather than an Investment / Fund Manager. Is more flexible than a lifetime pension / annuity. The balance of the account is owned by the beneficiary Pension payments are deducted from account balance Fees and costs are deducted from account balance Investment returns are added (deducted) as appropriate Returns should be tax free Lump sum withdrawals are permitted Beneficiary gets to select risk level Total Management Expense Ratios less than 90 bps Pension payments can be adjusted at anytime When a beneficiary dies, the account balance is available for the estate Market Linked Annuities Same as an Allocated Annuity with a wider range of investment options including share market(s) exposure. Lifetime Annuities Refer LifeTime Pension. Fixed Term Annuities Refer Fixed Term Pension. Conventional Annuities Refer LifeTime Pension. Managed Annuities This is where some of the lump sum is used to purchase a lifetime annuity providing a set (inflexible) pension for life and the balance is invested along the lines of a Market Linked pension which is reviewed regularly. The annuity portion can only be supplied by a Life Insurance company. The balance can be purchased from the same Company that supplies the annuity or from another Fund Manager. Pension Income Withdrawal A UK term used to describe an Allocated Pension Phased Income Withdrawal A UK term used to describe an Allocated Pension with delayed start date(s) and variable percentage drawdown figures. Discussion This White Paper has been drafted to generate discussion on the topic of retirement income streams for mature New Zealanders. Whilst it promotes the use of a collective investment vehicle it also strongly suggests that such a vehicles Management Expense Ratio (MER) should not be unreasonable. Similar to what is enshrined in the KiwiSaver Act, Schedule 1, rule 2. It is the authors understanding that the above suggestion has the potential to exclude the majority of retail unit trusts and superannuation trusts available in New Zealand. It is the authors belief that the New Zealand market requires a series of Allocated Pension type products Local research indicates that 50% of the population will outlive normal life expectancy tables.
