It’s important for everyone to have a plan in place so that their standard of living doesn’t fall when they retire. While women generally live longer than men, they are less likely to have adequate income in retirement.

Women generally end up with smaller pensions than men and one of the reasons for this is because women often face challenges during their working lives not experienced by men.

Their career paths are more likely to alter course to allow for temporary or permanent leave to mind children, take care of loved ones or even take a career break. And while this pattern is changing with more men taking on the role of carer, the vast majority of women, still undertake this role.
