Bonds no longer can be relied upon to provide sufficient retirement income....now what?
With traditionally "safe" investments like bonds unable to generate income for retirees as they once did, investors are seeking yield in riskier investments that can compromise their retirement security. What does this mean for your readers?
In this virtual MasterClass for financial journalists, we'll walk through income scenarios that demonstrate the impact of low interest rates and increasing risk on retirement portfolios and discuss how retirees need to think about income before and after retirement, given today's investment realities.
In this educational webinar for financial journalists you'll learn:
- The historical context for today's fixed income yields and what to expect moving forward
- How low interest rates impact retirement plans, looking at a range of income scenarios
- New modeling tools that demonstrate and compare the income-generating potential of fixed income and low-cost annuities using current market return assumptions
