We propose a research framework in financial economics, centered on the role of gender in longevity risk perception. Our approach is essentially made by three steps, aiming at the: (i) identification of drivers of subjective longevity assessment (e.g., biases), (ii) the measurement of the economic significance of longevity (mis)-perception in relation to saving and investment behaviors, (iii) the design of strategies to help women understand the opportunities behind long-term planning for retirement.enGenderretirementlongevity perceptionnudging.book section
