Foreword

This publication presents the work of the OECD project on annuity products and their guarantees. The project seeks to better understand the types of products available, the guarantees that they offer, and how policy can support the role of these products in financing retirement.

The first chapter describes the criteria that define the scope of the discussion around annuity products for retirement. It provides a classification of the different types of annuity products in order to establish a common language with which to discuss annuity products and markets. The second chapter provides an overview of the specific types of annuity products available, as well as the markets in which they can be found. The third chapter focuses on the risks that these products present to annuity providers and how they are managed, describing product features and risk management strategies for each product in depth. The fourth chapter discusses some considerations relating to drivers of annuity product design, availability, and sustainability as well as the potential role of regulation, relying on examples found in various markets to guide the discussion. The fifth chapter considers consumer protection issues relating to annuity products, in particular how these products are communicated and distributed to individuals. discusses the challenges that policy makers face in incorporating annuity products into the retirement landscape and presents the key policy considerations with respect to the issues raised.

The project on annuity products and their guarantees is part of the research and policy programme of work of the OECD Insurance and Private Pension Committee (IPPC) and, in particular, its Working Party on Private Pensions (WPPP). The WPPP is an international body that brings together policy makers, regulators and the private sector from all OECD countries to discuss issues related to the operation and regulation of funded retirement income systems.

This publication was prepared by Pablo Antolin and Jessica Mosher of the Financial Affairs Division of the OECD Directorate for Financial and Enterprise Affairs. It has greatly benefited from the comments of national government delegates of the IPPC and the WPPP, as well as representatives of industry bodies. We would especially like to thank Manuel Aguilera, previous Chair of the IPPC, and Ambrogio Rinaldi, Chair of the WPPP, for their useful advice, support and valuable inputs to this project. Editorial and communication support was provided by Pauline Arbel, Pamela Duffin, Kate Lancaster and Edward Smiley.

The OECD gratefully acknowledges the financial support from Prudential Financial to the OECD work on private pensions.

Executive Summary

As a result of the shifting retirement landscape, individuals are bearing increasing responsibility to manage the financing of their own retirement, not only in the saving and investment decisions they make during the accumulation of assets but also how they will draw down their assets in retirement. Along with this increased responsibility comes increased risk, both in terms of the investment risk of lower investment returns than expected, but especially the longevity risk of outliving assets in retirement.

Annuity products can provide guarantees which protect individuals from such risks, providing minimum guaranteed returns, guaranteed income and/or protection against longevity risk. Policy makers therefore have a strong interest to better understand the products and guarantees which are available in order to assess the potential role of these products in mitigating these risks for individuals as well as to put in place a framework to encourage the development of these products and ensure their sustainability.

In this context, the primary goal of the OECD project on Annuity Products presented in this publication is to better understand annuity products and the guarantees they provide. Product design is a crucial factor in the potential role of annuity products within the pension system, the cost and demand for these products, and the resulting risks that are borne by the annuity providers. Increasingly complex products, however, pose additional challenges with respect to consumer protection. Consumers need to be aware of their options and have access to unbiased and comprehensible advice and information for these products. Policy makers must have an understanding of these issues in order to ensure that annuity products can be optimally used as part of the solution to finance retirement and that these products remain sustainable for the annuity provider and suitable for consumers.
