This study examines the relationship between preretirement pension planning and life insurance purchase with its empirical findings from retired civil servants in Southwestern, Nigeria. The descriptive research design is employed. We used purposive sampling technique. A structured questionnaire was used to collect data. 387 respondents were drawn from three Local Government Council Areas from each state. The major statistical technique employed in this study was the Kolmogorov-Smirnov Test. Two hypothetical statements were tested. Results show that preretirement pension education has not encouraged the purchase of life annuity among retired civil servants in Nigeria and life annuity insurance has not been fully subscribed to among retired civil servants in Nigeria. Further, retired civil servants have not seen annuity as an investment vehicle. The study recommends that more stringent efforts should be made by insurance practitioners to collaborate with government and other private employers by creating awareness on annuity as the best financing vehicle for retirees to earn gradual income. The regulatory authorities should throw their weight at monitoring any fraudulent activities that may emerge in the retirement risk management process by creating a more reliable data management system that has the capacity to capture any fraudulent attempt or committed fraudulent activities in the Nigerian insurance industry. This research work contributes to knowledge in that it awakes Pension Fund Managers and Insurance Risk Managers to be alive to their responsibilities in ensuring that loopholes in the retirement annuity plans are tackled.
