The Hidden Risk to Your Pension


Listen Later

A crucial economic point that isn’t often discussed in the mainstream dialogue is the risk posed by youth unemployment to our economic future and, specifically, our pensions.

In the UK, the median age is 40 and continues to rise. Our economic system, which relies on an influx of young, fully employed workers paying taxes and National Insurance to support benefits for the aging population, operates much like a pyramid.

If you are investing for your future, this is critical:

Focus your investment attention on companies that:

* Employ more people in the younger age groups.

* Are selling services and products to the under-30 age bracket.

By stimulating this process, you are indirectly helping to secure the foundational mechanism of the economy as you age.

This reality is particularly acute in the UK, with additional economic challenges due to Brexit, and is also a significant factor across much of Europe.

It’s time to look beyond typical news cycles and fund manager advice and invest in a youthful, sustainable market.
