Executive Summary – General Habits • • • • • • Around half of those who don’t reject pension cannot make savings enough or they do not save at all. Those who do not make savings state that their income is just enough for their spending. Living in the moment and enjoying consumption are more attractive for the middle class, which is still developing in Turkey and focuses on emotional consumption. For those who make savings, saving money in banks is the most common investment type, followed by buying gold or foreign currency and having pension. For those who have ever owned pension or insurance before, brand reliability (65%) is the most important criterion in company selection, followed by convenient payment conditions (38%) and product content (30%). TV ads (44%), agencies (42%), social circle/acquaintances (38%) and bank they work with (35%) are the most important information sources . Information level regarding pension is low in general; 20% are aware of that they must stay in the system for 10 years and be over 56 years old; 51% state that it is enough to stay in the system for 10 years. Nearly half of respondents know that there is state subsidy in pension and trust in state subsidy is high. Knowing about state subsidy is higher in pension owners. More than half of respondents know that state subsidy is 25% but only 9% are aware of the requirements to benefit from state subsidy. Proportion of those who are aware is higher in pension owners. 48% of pension owners are planning to retire and receive monthly payments whereas 52% are planning to receive lump sum payments (28% are planning to receive after 10 years and 24% after retirement). Those who ever have pension Those who have pension now 35% 29% 13% 6% discontinued Pension is bought from banks (66%) or agencies (28%).

Segment demographics are similar to each other: Average age is between 32 and 36, balanced male-female ratio, high ABC1 SEC group belonging, educated and mostly have gainful employment There isn’t a significant difference among the segments about pension ownership.

Have no expectation of luxury, want a simple and quiet life. Motivation: Motivation: Want to have a stress-free life and thus to avoid potential health problems. Motivation: Pension Approach: See pension as a sort-term savings tool, consider it as a surprise money. However, do not consider buying pension if they have large amounts of money. Pension Approach: Motivation: Want to settle down, lead a life for themselves and seek peace in their life. Want to leave working completely when they retire and desire to lead a life without relying on anyone. See pension as stability, power and guarantee. Pension is reasonable as it provides controlled savings. For them, pension is something wage earners should buy, not for people who earn much. Pension Approach: Understand pension and see it as a long-term investment. It is important for them to remain in the system until the end. Think that the money they save might waste away, while pension is a good gain that provides steady income. Pension Approach: Think that current living conditions are tough and see pension as a comfort. They do not have high expectations and see it as a shelter in hard times. Money is not an objective, it is a means for self improvement. Think money brings responsibilities and problems, like to spend investing in themselves. Have high expectations from themselves, have plans about future. Want to have the money that that will meet their needs. Pension Approach: © 2013 Ipsos// STF007 GAB – ISO 20252 Want to have savings to do what they want, when they want. It is important to live in better conditions and provide their children what they desire. Find pension appealing as it provides an amount more than they can save. Find the idea that it’s self controlled and can be done with little amount of money appealing.

The largest segment. Already try different saving methods. Confused and open to guidance. What should we offer? Additional promotions / services How to reach them? Avoiding using the word ‘retirement’ is recommended as it can be associated with old age. Messages such as “Living in the moment, protection in hard times and putting everything in order” can be useful. 22% Seeking Privilege Why do we target? A younger segment, might be important to correct the misinformation they have about pension to educate the next generation better. What should we offer? Services involving child’s education, member exclusive social clubs, expert advisory services How to reach them? Messages about a better education for children and maintaining current living conditions may be useful. A message such as “I’m strong whatever happens” might be used portraying an individual who is strong and admirable. It might be emphasized that they’re privileged. 20% 17% 16% Future & Family Focused Security Seekers Why do we target? It’s very important to make saving, especially saving for children. Think about the future and take precautions today. What should we offer? Products aimed at children, especially about education How to reach them? Why do we target? We think that the number of individuals who act with motivation of ‘being self sufficient’ will increase in Turkish society, which shows an individualist tendency. What should we offer? ‘Giving sense of reassurance is important How to reach them? It is suggested to highlight that it is possible to guarantee the future with small savings. A message such as ‘Your child’s university costs are ready in advance’ will draw their attention. A message that is inviting, promises peace and trust and makes the customer feel like he/she is doing what is required for his/her future may be useful. It is important to convey a feeling of protection. Seeking Discovery & Self-Improvement Why do we target? They are ambitious people who plan their life today and have expectations about future; hence their personality matches with pension. What should we offer? © 2013 Ipsos// STF007 GAB – ISO 20252 25% It is an audience that faces a dilemma; spending money today for investments that’ll improve themselves, or making savings for the future. So, it is very important to emphasize the gains of pension in the communication. How to reach them? Gainful saving should be emphasized: communication that explains that they can gain more than the saving they make themselves, that they have the control, and gain more within the risks they themselves identify/take. © 2013 Ipsos// STF007 GAB – ISO 20252 Purpose and Project Design Our Purpose Setting up communication strategies to turn the current attitude towards pension and insurance in Turkey into positive and contributing to the adoption of pension and insurance in the long term. © 2013 Ipsos// STF007 GAB – ISO 20252 In this presentation, the focus will only be on pension. 15 How did we design? 2-staged research design for both studies… Requirement based segmentation model of Ipsos: Quantitative Interviews: Determining target groups and their sizes, establishing roadmap to reach each target group Qualitative Focus Groups: Identifying motivations, understanding consumers’ pension and insurance ownership perception © 2013 Ipsos// STF007 GAB – ISO 20252 ?

When they have large amount of money, they tend to invest in property the most as a long term investment. ….however there are other elements between the target and reality: 11 Income level is not enough to make savings. 12 Living in the moment and enjoying consumption are more attractive for the middle class, which is still developing in Turkey and focuses on emotional consumption. 13 Saving money is only appealing when it can be turned to cash quickly and provides added value to money. Qualitative 25 Perception of Safe Future Health issues and unemployment are the biggest concerns for the future. In terms of securing the future, consumers in Turkey can be best described by: • Living in the moment, • Can only save the day or spend it on consumption when they have an extra resource, • A more fatalist society where people accept what will happen, instead of planning beforehand to secure the future. • Fatalism is the biggest spiritual power for dealing with problems. Qualitative 26 Perception of Safe Future We have similar dreams of a good future: a quiet and peaceful life, away from the city’s chaos. It is known that money has an undeniable role for achieving this. Protective nature of families, solidarity and our socialist structure are among the most important supports in hard times. Qualitative 27 Investment Behaviors Around half of those who don’t reject pension cannot make savings enough or they do not save at all. The fundamental obstacle to investing is the lack of financial resources. Their income is just enough for their spending.
