RETIREMENT PLANNING 101: Insights from John Keah of Retirement Benefits Authority.

After decades of working hard, many Kenyans retire with only Ksh 3 million that they expect to sustain them post age 60. Yet, many retirees live even upto 80s and 90s. That’s another 30 years. It is not shocking then, that over 80% of retirees still seek employment for survival.

The math is just not mathing!

When saving is easy, participation rises.

When saving is complex, people delay.

Technology is the bridge between today’s informal worker and tomorrow’s financial security.
