Promoting Lifelong Retirement Payouts
The Hong Kong Mortgage Corporation Limited (HKMC) hosted the premiere of its micro-film, '100 Things I Want to Do after Retirement,' alongside a sharing session on January 21. The event aimed to promote the 'HKMC Retire 3' suite of products, which includes the Reverse Mortgage Programme (RMP), the Policy Reverse Mortgage Programme (PRMP), and the HKMC Annuity Plan.
These offerings are designed to provide individuals with lifelong payouts, supporting them in achieving their personal retirement goals.
Around 30 HKMC partners, including banks and insurance companies, attended the micro-film premiere, which also featured a lighting ceremony.
Supporting an Ageing Society
Mr. Colin Pou, Executive Director and Chief Executive Officer of the HKMC, underscored the corporation's mission to advance the retirement planning market.
He noted that the 'HKMC Retire 3' products have already assisted over 45,000 customers in enhancing their retirement quality since their launch in 2011. Pou expressed hope that the micro-film would inspire the public to plan proactively.
The HKMC intends to intensify its promotion of the 'HKMC Retire 3' and bolster financial education for the elderly, supporting the government's initiatives for an ageing society and the silver economy.
The micro-film is now accessible on the HKMC YouTube Channel.
A Timely Push for Planning
This HKMC initiative offers a timely and accessible approach to encourage proactive retirement planning, a critical need in an ageing society.
While the micro-film effectively raises awareness, the true measure of success will lie in its ability to translate interest into concrete financial actions.
Such public education efforts are essential for enhancing long-term financial security for the elderly.
