a speech this spring at NYU’s Stern School of Business, Laurence D. Fink, chairman and CEO of BlackRock spoke about the significant changes in the retirement landscape due to increased longevity. He concluded his speech saying, “…the challenges we all face in this Grey Society are enormous and enormously complex. Demographic forces are having a seismic effect on the way we live and the way our economies work. They are straining budgets and skewing markets. But I have no doubt that we have all the intellectual capital—including here at NYU—all the ingenuity and all the determination we need to put our minds to making sure that longer lives remain a blessing.”
