The way the performance statistics on ETFs, mutual funds, and indexes are reported assumes a lump sum investment and the sequence-of-returns does not matter.

In real life, however, retirement portfolios are not accumulated in a lump sum, and retirement portfolios are especially vulnerable in the withdrawal phase to  a bad sequence of returns.

It is important for advisors to teach clients how their portfolios should be managed differently in the distribution phase of their retirement versus the accumulation phase.  Toward that objective, particpants at this class learn why:

  • broad diversification is more important during the distribution phase than during the accumulation phase 
  • withdrawing proportionately more from better-performing investments annually rebalances a portfolio
  • withdrawing a set amount annually is not as smart as withdrawing a percentage of a portfolio’s balance  

This course by Craig Israelsen, Ph.D., is a monthly reminder that keeps advisors focused on:

  • the importance of diverse asset classes in a portfolio
  • how to manage diversified portfolio in low-expense ETFs or funds
  • how to illustrate key concepts to clients
  • return and risk statistics of a core portfolio       

Who should attend: 

  • Institutional Investment Plan Trustees
  • Institutional Investment Consultants
  • Investment Advisors
  • Financial Planners
  • Wealth Managers
  • Financial Analysts
  • Securities and Research Analysts

I'm always impressed by Craig's presentation. I have an increasing number of prospective clients, especially the DIYers, who are stumped in what to do when they're in retirement and want to withdraw from their portfolio in a tax-efficient way.

Good presentation. It was unfortunate that the tech acted up late in the presentation. Craig did a good job despite the glitch. His insights are meaningful and significant to the thoughful financial planning professional.
