Most Jamaicans are walking toward retirement with nothing saved and don't know it yet. Desmond Johnson spent over 20 years inside NCB managing over $120 billion in pension assets. He joins Dr. Matthew Preston and Dr. Thaon Simms to explain why less than 20% of Jamaica's workforce contributes to a pension, what the government's auto enrollment plan actually changes, and which JSE stocks he's buying right now. This is the retirement conversation Jamaica needs to have.Chapters:00:00 Introduction and Meet Desmond Johnson02:10 Behind the Scenes: What the Pension Industry Sees That You Don't05:06 Jamaica's Retirement Gap: Only 20% Are Saving09:08 What a Pension Actually Is and How It Works14:11 Starting at 24 vs 35: The Real Difference in Your Payout16:17 Why Coverage Is So Low: It's a Culture Problem18:14 What Auto Enrollment Actually Means for Jamaica22:37 Pension Funds and the JSE: Why More Money Isn't Flowing In33:19 How Pension Funds Invest and the 5% Concentration Limit40:14 Desmond's JSE Stock Picks: NCB, Grace Kennedy and Sagicor🎧 Listen to more episodes: https://limitlesspodcast.buzzsprout.com🐥 Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/Limitless_pod📷 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/limitless_pod/💲 Get exclusive insights: https://bit.ly/Limitless-MMJA-Discount💝 Support the podcast: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1971039/support📧 Email us: [email protected]👍 If you enjoyed this episode, please like, subscribe, and share with someone who hasn't started saving for retirement yet!❓ Are you contributing the maximum 20% to your pension?
