The New Flexible Retirement offers perspectives on the retirement outlook of 16,000 workers and retirees in the U.S. and 14 other countries around the world. This report, conducted in collaboration with the Aegon is part of the 2015 Aegon Retirement Readiness Survey.

The study identifies workers’ vision of retirement as "the new flexible retirement." This vision represents an important opportunity to work longer, continue earning income, stay active and involved, and fully retire at an older age – while freeing up time for family, friends, and enjoyment. This vision can also create a win-win situation by serving as a powerful tool to help solve government, social security, and employer-related issues resulting from population aging.
