AnnotationAs part of its work on the implications of an ageing population, the FSA commissioned qualitative research from NOP, to explore how consumers plan for their financial futures before retirement, at retirement, or in retirement. The focus is on consumers' experiences of, and attitudes towards, key financial decisions, products and advice. The results of this are in Section 3, which also covers lump sums, annuities, housing, equity release, and long-term care. This is complemented by quantitative research in Section 2, based on an analysis of data from NOP's Financial Research Survey. This section looks at trends in state and private pensions provision, and ownership of financial assets across different generations of consumers. Section 1 sets the scene, by highlighting key demographic trends contributing to an ageing population. (RH).
