2013 Presentation - Gender Discrimination

Hi,

When working through the above paper the question states that males should get preferential annuity rates to females.

I am not sure if this is me not understanding how gender neutral works with regards to pensions or if this is because this example does not follow reality.

I assumed, in reality, that annuity rates should be equal between genders. This does not seem to be the case in the question.

Can someone shed a bit of light on this for me.

Cheers,
 
Hi - gender neutral rates are a relatively recent thing in the Uk. Until recently pricing could be based on gender in the UK and may still be the case in other countries.
