A multi-contributor work aimed at financial advisers and wealth managers: 26 chapters offer fresh research and solutions for forecasting income needs, evaluating client requirements, using new investment vehicles and communicating effectively with clients.

For years, financial planners have helped their clients accumulate enough assets for retirement. Now, as millions of baby boomers begin exiting the workforce, the focus has shifted to ensuring that those assets last throughout their clients’ lives. The challenge is large and so are clients’ expectations. With Americans living longer and hatching travel plans that go way beyond the front porch, the concept of retirement has fundamentally changed.

To better understand and meet the challenges ahead, Harold Evensky and Deena B. Katz, two of the nation’s best-known and respected financial planners, asked leading experts and visionaries to give advisers a toolkit and roadmap to the new landscape. Included are valuable insights and practical approaches for increasing retirement cash flow, withdrawal strategies, creating portfolios with low volatility, and decision making.

Each of the 26 contributors offers fresh research and solutions for forecasting income needs, evaluating client needs, using new investment vehicles, and communicating effectively with clients. Armed with these more effective approaches to distribution and improved methodologies for planning, financial advisers and wealth managers will be able to make their clients’ golden years shine ever more brightly.
