Research conducted by the Social Market Foundation has revealed, using figures from Australia and the USA, that 40% of retirees are likely to run out of savings ten years after retirement as result of April's pension freedoms. With a life expectancy of 87 for a man and 89 for a woman, this could mean up to 12 or 14 years with no pension pot.
