TERMINOLOGY: 

  • 75% spouse’s pension (joint life annuity)

This means that upon the death of the principal pensioner, the surviving spouse will receive a pension equal to 75% of the pension being paid at the time of death.

  • Expected monthly pension

The initial gross monthly pension amount before tax, fund deductions, and future increases.

  • Guaranteed period

This is the minimum period (in this case, 5 years) for which pension payments are guaranteed, regardless of whether the pensioner survives for the full period. If the pensioner passes away within the guaranteed period, the pension will continue to be paid to the nominated Beneficiary (or estate) for the remainder of the guaranteed term.
