Quick Glance: Millions Over 55 at Risk of £2,643 Income Shortfall
- A warning has been issued to pensioners as the full state pension falls £2,643 short of the basic income needed for a minimum standard of living in retirement.
- According to Alice Guy, head of pensions and savings at Interactive Investor, pensioners currently need £14,144 each year before tax, based on findings from the Pensions and Lifetime Savings Association living standards.
- Over a quarter (28 per cent) of over-55s have no other pension and are wholly reliant on the state pension, as reported by the Mirror.
- To achieve a comfortable retirement, you will need to supplement the state pension by saving into a workplace or private pension.
