Portfolio Advisory Services
Portfolio Advisory Services can provide employees with tailored savings and investing advice to help them decide how much to save, when to retire, when to start collecting Social Security, and build custom Managed Portfolios.
With more complex data points, Portfolio Advisory Services accounts can offer expanded recommendations that may create advantages over typical Target and Risk-based models.
The Advantages of Customized Advice
After receiving guidance with a managed account service, 87% of participants increased their savings rates.
Participating in a managed accounts service resulted in more-appropriate portfolio risk levels for participants, with higher quality funds and better hypothetical performance.
Assuming an annual fee of 0.40%, the average 30-year old participant could have almost 56% more annual retirement income.
