Planning for retirement is one of the most important financial tasks you'll ever have to do. In South Africa, most people have not saved enough to retire comfortably.
The Retirement Calculator measures how well you're progressing towards your retirement goals based on your existing retirement savings and ongoing monthly contributions. All you have to do is answer a few questions, and the calculator will show you the changes you need to make to achieve your goals. It doesn't matter how old you are - the calculator will show you how likely you are to be able to retire at various ages, and how much you stand to retire with. Use the calculator as part of your conversations with your financial adviser to start planning today.

The Risk Capacity Assessment measures your long-term financial health and your capacity to take risks with your investments. It provides you with a Risk Capacity score so you can assess your current financial circumstances more accurately.
Your ability to take on risks is what determines your long-term financial health and what you can do with your money. If you have a risk capacity that's high because of all the assets you have accumulated, you'll be able to take on more risks with your investments. However, if your risk capacity is low, you might find it difficult taking on risks and meeting your obligations.
