Retirement Learning Plans for Advisors and Consumers
Looking for a cost-effective way to deepen and broaden your team’s understanding of decumulation and retirement income planning?
According to the Investment Company Institute, total US retirement assets were $28 trillion as of March 31, 2018, accounting for 34 percent of all household financial assets in the United States. There is a critical need for knowledgeable professionals to help current and future retirees make informed decisions.
A fiduciary duty of loyalty (putting the best interests of the client first) is only one-half of the fiduciary standard. As retirement professionals, we also are required to meet a fiduciary duty of care, which means competently, diligently and prudently advising clients of their options. Investing in retirement-specific professional development helps you meet both standards.
The Retirement Resource Center provides national conference-level programs by leading experts so financial and retirement professionals, support staff, and public sector retirement systems help their affluent and middle-income clients and members make decisions that fortify their retirement security and peace of mind.
A custom retirement conference at your fingertips for up to 25 individuals.
