retirement

• Risks and uncertainties

What’s the result

How the Agile Investment range works?

Other Investment Portfolios

Very wide range of portfolios

• Liberty Trackers

• Internal Liberty portfolios (same as Evolve)

• All GateWay unit trusts

Over 100 portfolios available

Flat platform fee of 0.3% p.a.

Flexibility to stop, start and change contributions at any time with no charge

Exact Income Fund

The only portfolio that guarantees your income in retirement

For each investment in the Exact Income Fund (EIF) Liberty will

guarantee the level of income that it can buy in retirement.

For example:

Invest R100 000 today and Liberty will guarantee that it will provide

R3 000 per month in retirement.

No fees on this portfolio, but it pays 0.5% ongoing advice fee

Need for ongoing advice

Moving Targets

• You don’t know now exactly what income at retirement you will need

• Many things will change between now and retirement

• Salary

• Monthly expenditure

• House

• Spouse

• Other assets

• Interest Rates

• Market Returns

• Inflation

• etc

• Need to keep reviewing

• Retirement Plan

• How much is being invested each month

You can select your income type at retirement on Exact Income Fund

Remuneration

No upfront commission and no enhanced allocations

All as and when advice fees agreed with client in Advice Fee Mandate

Initial advice fees up to 3%

Ongoing advice fees

Exact Income Fund up to 0.5% p.a. (priced in)

Other Investment portfolios up to 1.0% p.a.

EIF Investment

values drop

Exact Income

Remains same

Ongoing advice fee on EIF

In the Exact Income Fund, client gets guaranteed income and certainty

• Ongoing advice fee should behave in the same way

Ongoing Advice Fee escalation rate applicable to all investments

• Once investment made, applies until retirement

• Can change for new investments as EPR’s change

e.g. Investment of R1m and the OAF escalation rate is 6%

OAF in year 1 is 0.5% of R1m = R5 000

In year 2 OAF is guaranteed to increase by 6% to R5 300

In year 3 OAF is guaranteed to increase by 6% to R5 618 etc.

Market value of EIF

• The EIF outcome at retirement is very low risk

• Targets an income in retirement

• This is known and guaranteed – doesn’t change

• Purpose is to keep until retirement

• The market value of this benefit does move daily and is volatile

• Investment value = Value of the annuity payments

• This moves with interest rates and longevity

Benefits before retirement

Restrictions:

What about death?

• Similar to Unit Trust based RA’s

• Market Value of investments

– No minimum death guarantee

What if my client wants to transfer?

• Benefit = Investment Value

• EIF – lose their guarantee, value may be volatile

annuity rates

• Or the Investment Value may be used (OIP/EIF):
