Welcome To the Personal Finance’s Podcast show with me Content Editor Ruan Jooste. This is our Pension Plain episode for the month of November, where we cover retirement everything, everyone, and everywhere. This week the 14th annual Mercer CFA Institute Global Pension Index - MCGPI - for short was released, which is a comprehensive study of 44 global pension systems, accounting for 65 percent of the world’s population.

The benchmark rates retirement income systems around the world, highlighting some shortcomings in each system, and suggests possible areas of reform that would help provide more adequate and sustainable retirement benefits.

My guest today is Belinda Sullivan, head of corporate consulting strategy at Alexforbes, and Mercer’s strategic partner in Africa.
