Singapore ranks 27th amongst top countries for retirement security in 2022

The city-state delivered a strong performance in retirement finances.

Singapore landed in 27th place in the Natixis 2022 Global Retirement Index (GRI), which ranks the top countries for retirement security.

Countries are scored based on four thematic indices --- Finances in Retirement, Health, Quality of Life, and Material Wellbeing where Singapore scored 76%, 82%, 51%, and 52%, respectively.

In the Finances in Retirement sub-index, Natixis said Singapore ranked first amongst countries.

Natixis said Singapore was able to retain its ranking in the sub-index because of its strong performance across the seven indicators of the sub-index, namely inflation (1st), tax pressure (3rd), interest rates (5th), old-age dependency (8th) and governance (8th).

Meanwhile, Singapore fell one spot in the health sub-index, due to mediocre scores and ranks in health expenditure per capita and insured health indicators.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
