Summary:

Retiring babyboomers are driving a shift from retirement fund accumulation to decumulation, a phase in which they must balance present financial needs against longevity risk. To enhance their options, policy reforms should level the playing field for annuity products and promote market-driven variety of choice, thus ensuring retirees have at least some funds available to them for the long haul.
