The information I am providing is my opinion and not necessarily that of my firm or this platform. I am only providing general educational information and not any customized investment recommendations. You should consult with your Financial Advisor, Tax Advisor or Attorney on your specific situation. Nothing shall be construed as Financial, Tax or legal advice or recommendations. Choosing the right pension payout option is a critical decision that significantly influences retirement security, with commonly available choices including single life annuity, joint and survivor annuity, lump sum, and term certain. Each of these options comes with its own set of benefits and drawbacks, making it essential to consider factors such as a spouse's needs, age, health, and other sources of income when making a decision. Kris Flammang underscores the importance of taking time to thoroughly evaluate these options in the context of one's overall financial plan and lifestyle goals, often sharing anecdotes of clients who changed their initial decisions after a comprehensive review of their situation. Collin Habig echoes this perspective, emphasizing the need for a detailed understanding of financial aspects like retirement savings and debt, and the importance of using projections to foresee the impact of each option on future income. Both highlight the value of consulting a financial advisor to ensure that the chosen option aligns with individual and family goals, thus avoiding rushed decisions that might have long-term repercussions on retirement security. Here's what to expect this episode: Consider factors like spouse's needs, age, health, other income sources when choosing pension payout options. Different pension payout options have various implications like income for both parties, better health options, and control and flexibility. Seek advice from financial advisor for informed choices aligning with financial goals and ensuring long-term financial security.

**** Disclosure***** Myself (Vu Kiet Tran) and Mr. Jean-Pierre Laporte are co-founders of the Canadian Physicians' Pension Plan. Over the last 2-3 years, several pension plans for physicians have come onto the Canadian market. Physicians are now more concerned with their retirement and financial wellness (and they should be), especially with the most recent announcement by the federal government that increased the inclusion rate on Capital Gains. Physicians are starting to understand the financial impact of this new change and are looking for solutions. They are now being marketed on the Specified Multi-Employer Pension Plan (SMEPP). Physicians need to know what this pension plan is about. Physicians need to do their due diligence.

The Healthcare of Ontario Pension Plan (HOOPP) will welcome Ontario incorporated physicians on January 2nd, 2025. For more than 60 years, HOOPP has been providing secure pensions to Ontario healthcare workers. With more than 460,000 members and 670 participating employers across the province, HOOPP's membership continues to grow. Physicians play an important role in Ontario's healthcare sector, and HOOPP is pleased to announce that HOOPP will open the Plan to eligible incorporated physicians across the province in January 2025. Medical associations have advocated and now doctors have another pension option. What is The Healthcare of Ontario pension Plan? Who was it designed for? Were physicians in the initial calculations back in its establishment in 1960? If not, how do incorporated physicians fit in there now? Does HOOPP even meet the needs of incorporated physicians in Ontario in 2025? Does it fall short and where?

Bruce Arthur and Dave Feschuk take a final tour through Toronto's recent sports history. They touch on the bean-counting days of the Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan and Rogers to the more ambitious days of Bell and Rogers, with Larry Tanenbaum in between. They muse on the bad old days of the Leafs, Raptors and Jays to the current era of Brendan Shanahan, Masai Ujiri, and Mark Shapiro in Toronto sports. They consider the end of Alex Anthopoulos, the Raptors title (and the subsequent idea that Kawhi Leonard and Paul George could have come to Toronto), and the many failures, big and small, of the Toronto Maple Leafs. How could it have been different? How do you fix it now? Are the Jays doomed to corporate mediocrity, are the Raptors too far from their championship peak, and have the Leafs accumulated too much baggage to actually have a championship contending window? Arthur and Feschuk take you through the whole big ball of failure, and more.

We discuss the high level Strategic Asset Allocation of the plan and also how the changed macro environment in recent years has motivated a shift in the asset allocation towards more absolute return strategies. Such strategies play a dual role of diversification and return enhancement for UPP and we discuss how Christophe thinks about an appropriate strategy allocation within absolute return. We also delve into the challenges of manager selection and evaluation, why it is important to remember that you are buying an “investment process” not historical returns when allocating to managers and discuss when is it appropriate to remove a manager and when not. -----EXCEPTIONAL RESOURCE: Find Out How to Build a Safer & Better Performing Portfolio using this FREE NEW Portfolio Builder Tool-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “The Many Flavors of Trend Following” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Alan on Twitter.Follow Christophe on LinkedIn.Episode TimeStamps: 02:44 - Introduction to Christophe L'Ahelec07:00 - A new initiative09:55 - What kind of strategy drives their asset allocation?12:34 - What goes into which bucket?14:39 - What makes absolute return exposure more attractive at the moment?16:25 - Constructing an absolute return portfolio18:32 - How they approach trend following21:52 - Why do they use leverage?23:26 - What do they expect from their...
