As India finds itself at a unique demographic crossroads—with the largest young workforce globally and a rapidly growing elderly population—the conversation surrounding retirement planning has become more critical than ever. Advances in healthcare, improved lifestyles, and increasing affluence are contributing to longer life spans, making financial planning for one’s post-working years essential, rather than optional.
Recognizing this shift, PNB MetLife has introduced the Smart Invest Pension Plan under its “Circle of Life” initiative. This plan aims to help customers secure a financially stable retirement in light of the projected increase in India’s elderly population by 2050.
“India currently has the highest number of young working individuals in the world. However, at the same time, the proportion of elderly people is increasing at a rapid pace,” says Mohit Garg, Chief Strategy Officer and Head of Products at PNB MetLife. “Today’s retirees must plan their finances effectively to maintain their lifestyle for 20 to 30 years after retirement age.”
