Hongkongers aim for self-sufficiency in old age, but survey finds ‘clear readiness gap’
A survey of 1,000 Hongkongers aged 18 and above reveals that 90% aim to remain self-sufficient in old age, yet they expect 14 years of care dependency and 17 years of financial dependence, among the highest in Asia. The Manulife Asia Care Survey 2026 highlights a 'clear readiness gap' between awareness and action in preventive healthcare and financial self-reliance.
