This document discusses challenges related to increasing life expectancy and proposes solutions for long-term income protection. It notes that people are living and working longer. Conventional insurance often only provides income replacement until age 65 but many will live decades longer. The document introduces Myriad's "Longevity Protectors" which extend income protection benefits later in life through benefit increases. This comprehensive solution helps ensure clients are protected against outliving their savings.
