Many South Africans find it challenging to retire comfortably. This challenge is amplified by rising medical costs as we age and the impact of medical inflation, which outpaces general inflation by 3 to 4%.

Adding an Investo Retirement Annuity dedicated to medical costs to your existing retirement benefits portfolio puts you in a better financial position when you retire.
