Effect of low interest rates on retirees
Lower interest rates mean that households get
less income from annuitizing their wealth. A retiree
with $100,000 will receive $492 per month from an
inflation-indexed annuity when the real interest rate
is 3.0 percent compared to $413 per month when it is
1.5 percent.
Question is, where are retirees going to make up the difference?
