About the Program

Behavioral finance is still in its infancy stage. But the way behavioral finance applies to the even more challenging distribution phase of life has almost been unexplored. However, there are significant lessons to be learned from the way people make decisions in life that can be applied to create a more confident and successful client by simplifying their retirement income decisions. This program will address common misconceptions and assumptions that often prevent clients from building robust and flexible retirement plans. Attendees will then learn how to determine the approach that fits their clients’ retirement goals and behaviors.
