Managing Retirement Income: What Your Clients Need to Know
on October 15, 2020
By Kevin S. Seibert, CFP®, CRC®, CEBS, Managing Director, International Foundation for Retirement Education (InFRE)
The idea of retirement is a relatively new concept. A child born in 1900 had a life expectancy of age 47. People worked as long as they could and then moved in with their children. The idea of not working someday because you reached a certain age or felt like it never really entered their minds.

Reprint of CANNEX Research

The question is anything but trivial, as today’s retirees are facing the twin uncertainties of both market performance and (increasing) longevity – as well as reduced savings levels compared to previous generations, and the disappearance of the defined benefit pensions that formerly provided a lifetime of guaranteed income in retirement. In short, your retiring clients face a set of challenges that previous generations simply did not. As a result, when near-retirees turn to their financial advisors for help, they are looking for solutions to ensure they can sustain their desired standard of living in retirement without running out of funds.
