Citywire article: Bjorn Ladewig spoke to Citywire SA's Ruan Jooste about Just SA’s case for a renewed drawdown mindset for retirement. It necessitates a shift from short-term thinking to a more sustainable, longevity-aware approach. Advisers should help clients understand the real risks of longevity and guide them toward income strategies that last a lifetime.

The first 16 days of April 2025 were a scary time for investors, magnifying the impact of market volatility on retirement finances. For those retirees that want income certainty and flexibility, the optimal solution is to blend a lifetime income within a living annuity. This can cushion the blow of market fluctuations. 

We believe that everyone deserves a better later life - to age with dignity, security, and happiness. By addressing these needs, Just SA and YEI are trying to make a positive impact on society and create a world where the 60-plus community is valued, respected, and supported.
