Are you one of women who are confident about retirement?

In an age where women should be equal to men in every way, women are still far behind men when it comes to being confident about retirement.

- 

New research from Sanlam Corporate reveals a sobering reality: only 8% of female retirement fund members feel confident they will be able to retire comfortably.

According to the Sanlam Benchmark 2025 Consumer Study, nearly half (46%) of women believe they will never save enough to retire, while just 33% feel financially secure about their future, compared to 51% of men.

"This is not just a research finding but a quiet crisis," says Oletilwe Ramashala, head of business development and strategic partnerships at Sanlam Corporate.
