If you’re looking for the best place in the world to retire when you’re finally ready to leave the job behind, here's a hint: It’s not the good old U.S. of A.
In fact, the U.S. doesn’t even make the top 10, according to the Global Retirement Index from Natixis Global Asset Management. The index, the firm says, examines key factors that drive retirement security and provides a comparison tool for best practices in retirement policy across 43 countries.
Natixis considered four factors in arriving at its index ratings. The finances in retirement category considers access to quality financial services and the ability to preserve savings. Then there’s material well-being, which examines retirees’ ability to live comfortably in retirement. Health is the next important category, evaluating retirees’ access to quality health services. Finally there’s quality of life, which focuses on whether a country can provide a clean, safe environment in which to live.
