A survey conducted by AIA Hong Kong found that Hong Kong people still face a significant gap in retirement preparation. More than 70% of respondents indicated that their retirement savings are insufficient, with an average funding shortfall of as much as HKD2.564 million, reflecting a persistent gap between expectations and reality. Notably, market perception of the role of the Mandatory Provident Fund (MPF) is gradually evolving. The survey revealed that currently only about half of pre-retirees plan to withdraw their MPF in a lump sum. Nearly 20% expect to retain all their assets in their MPF accounts for continued investment, indicating a shift among some Hong Kong people from a "lump-sum withdrawal" approach to a "continuous investment" model, with the aim of meeting retirement needs through asset roll-over. In terms of product selection, pre-retirees have increasingly clear demands for post-retirement investment solutions, with the top three priorities being "flexible withdrawal", "sustainable monthly income", and "capital preservation with guaranteed returns". In light of this, AIA Hong Kong has launched a new "Retirement Income Fund", providing MPF members with an additional option for retirement planning.
