我最近参与了一个工作组,该工作组致力于为财务规划师和顾问制定一些最佳实践。在这个过程中,我深入思考了财务规划和咨询实践,特别是年金。我发现推迟领取的年金(DIA)由于死亡信用比立即年金具有更高的回报率。 死亡信用是指那些寿命低于预期的人补贴那些长寿的人的收入。由于死亡信用,退休人员需要更多的资金来资助债券阶梯以获得终身付款,而购买立即年金则不需要那么多资金。 推迟领取的年金比立即年金拥有更高的死亡信用,因为死亡信用直到领取者70多岁或80多岁才抵消年金中的嵌入成本。推迟领取的年金比立即年金拥有更多的死亡信用,因为更多的回报来自补贴而不是保险公司产生的潜在回报。 在立即年金的早期阶段,由于很少有年金领取者死亡,因此大部分现金流支付来自保费和投资收益,补贴很少。在15年期间,年金领取者会去世,因此一部分年度付款来自那些购买了推迟领取的年金但没有拿到第一笔付款的年金领取者。 65岁男性购买立即年金的年化回报率为3.8%,而65岁男性购买推迟领取的年金的年化回报率为4.8%。推迟领取的年金比立即年金具有更高的内部回报率,这并非由于收益曲线形状,而是由于死亡信用。 为了使17年期债券阶梯比立即年金更划算,通货膨胀率必须达到1.5%或更高。为了使23年期债券阶梯比立即年金更划算,通货膨胀率必须达到3%或更高。 对于那些不需要立即年金带来的安心感,并且可以在退休初期管理自己的资产的人来说,推迟领取的年金可能更有意义。推迟领取的年金的年化回报率为9.2%。 在利率较低的情况下,年金的死亡信用组成部分变得更加重要,使得年金相对于债券更有吸引力。死亡信用是一种分散化工具,因为它不依赖于利率,而依赖于寿命预期。将死亡信用视为增加收入的增量回报,更容易理解。
