The main fear for people approaching retirement age is running out of money, with 48% worried about not having enough money in their retirement.

To counteract this problem, advisers can help clients understand how to manage their money and get a better grip of how much they have in order to make it last.

When asked to pick their three main expectations in retirement, many people highlight travelling and spending time with their partner/spouse, with 46% wanting to travel once retired and 31% focused on simply spending time with their other half.  41% are simply looking forward to the luxury of having free time!
