Preparing your clients for Life100+

A key finding in our first Life100+ report is that preparing well for later life is imperative. By planning appropriately and leveraging the power of conversation – most especially in the areas of close relationships and financial advice – people will be in a much better position to take advantage of the benefits additional years may bring.

Demand exists, but the advice gap persists

We’ve found that many people haven’t given much thought to their later years, and that a lack of preparedness will hamper their ability to live comfortably.

This issue is compounded by the fact that only 23% of our respondents have ever used an adviser.

Advice and the power of control

Our research shows that having a sense of control over one’s life is strongly correlated with life satisfaction. Nine in ten (90%) of those who say they feel in control are satisfied with life, compared with just two-thirds (65%) overall.

People who receive financial advice feel more in control, and three-quarters (75%) of those who use an adviser are satisfied with their life, compared with six in ten (61%) of those who don't use an adviser.

The power of conversation

Many people haven’t had any discussions with their family about later life and inheritance. Yet, doing so strongly relates to life satisfaction and feeling in control. This is just one of the areas where you can add value for your clients.

Part of our aim for Life100+ is to highlight the importance of these conversations and demonstrate the advantages they can bring.
