Barry Gordon, Head of Canadian Retail Asset Management, at Guardian Capital LP, and Dr. Moshe A. Milevsky, Ph.D., Professor at Schulich School of Business at York University join us to discuss how they went about solving what Nobel Laureate, William F. Sharpe, has described at the "nastiest, hardest problem in finance."Guardian Capital made quite a splash recently, announcing their partnership with Dr. Moshe Milevsky to develop a suite of retirement decumulation solutions, that are now available as securities for investment advisors to utilize, to address the quintessential "Retirement Dilemma," which combine compelling income and growth strategies of targeted-yield and return asset decumulation, in what is definitively described as a 'Modern Tontine.'We are in the midst of what appears to be an historical regime change, following 40 years of declining government bond yields, into new regime that won't be as friendly to investors as the last, with historically very low, though rising rates and inflationary volatility. Investors are facing what may be a very trying period for retirees, or those in pre-retirement, from a sequence of returns risk and market volatility perspective.Highlights:What was the genesis of GuardPath Longevity Solutions – when did you first realize this project needed to be brought to life?How does the GuardPath Suite address these problems?What is a Tontine? What is the origin of the Tontine?The science of mortality credits or survivorship credits (monetizing mortality)Why should the insurance industry have a monopoly on mortality credits?How does the decumulation strategy work? What can investors expect from the Managed Decumulation strategy?Can the two main components of the Guardpath suite be used separately, or are they only intended to be implemented together?how do you operationalize the complete modern tontine strategy?What can the estates of investors/retirees expect from GuardPath in the event of death?What happens if you live past the 20 year term?Thank you for watching and listening.For more on GuardPath™ Longevity Solutions, visit guardpath.ca

The Sharpe ratio was developed by Nobel laureate William F. Sharpe and is used to help investors understand the return of an investment compared to its risk.1 2 The ratio is the average return earned in excess of the risk-free rate per unit of volatility or total risk. Volatility is a measure of the price fluctuations of an asset or portfolio.Subtracting the risk-free rate from the mean return allows an investor to better isolate the profits associated with risk-taking activities. The risk-free rate of return is the return on investment with zero risk, meaning it's the return investors could expect for taking no risk. The yield for a U.S. Treasury bond, for example, could be used as the risk-free rate.Generally, the greater the value of the Sharpe ratio, the more attractive the risk-adjusted return.The Sharpe ratio has become the most widely used method for calculating the risk-adjusted return. Modern Portfolio Theory states that adding assets to a diversified portfolio that has low correlations can decrease portfolio risk without sacrificing return.Adding diversification should increase the Sharpe ratio compared to similar portfolios with a lower level of diversification. For this to be true, investors must also accept the assumption that risk is equal to volatility, which is not unreasonable but may be too narrow to be applied to all investments.The Sharpe ratio can be used to evaluate a portfolio's past performance where actual returns are used in the formula. Alternatively, an investor could use expected portfolio performance and the expected risk-free rate to calculate an estimated Sharpe ratio.

Retirement Answer Man
#174 - Does the Institutional Approach to Asset Allocation For Retirement Work These Days?

Retirement Answer Man

Play Episode Listen Later Jun 14, 2017 29:31


Part of my job as the Retirement Answer Man is to help you face the current issues that impact your retirement planning decisions. Part of that is the non-glamorous task of assessing the traditional approaches to retirement planning to see if they still work. So on this episode, I’m going to take a fairly deep dive into the institutional approach to asset allocation that has been the basis for retirement planning for many years - and I think once you understand the premise behind it, you’ll see that it’s a bit antiquated for modern retirement planning purposes. But never fear, I’m also going to point you in the right direction regarding how you can make up for the deficit! An institutional approach for retirement asset allocation doesn’t work because YOU are not an institution. I say that with my tongue planted firmly in my cheek, but I also really mean it. Institutions do a very good job of allocating their assets for THEIR particular goals, but YOUR goals for retirement are vastly different than theirs, don’t you think? So following their pattern may be helpful (and it is, in some ways) but it’s not enough. You need to know the potential pitfalls of following an institutional lead and how to avoid them. That’s why I’m here. :) This episode of The Retirement Answer Man will point you in the right direction and then next week, we’ll follow up with some more practical tips to get your retirement planning mindset up to date! A Nobel Laureate says we have a problem with decumulation when it comes to retirement. What? I think he made up the word but, Nobel Laureate William F. Sharpe of Stanford University has determined that things in our modern society have changed so much that we need to reassess how we approach retirement planning. A big part of the problem (he says) is that we have a phenomenon happening called “decumulation.” It’s what happens when we hit retirement with resources that are inadequate to match our expected lifespan. As you can see, you’ll eventually run out of assets in that scenario. What’s he doing about it? He’s begun a study, naturally. On this episode of The Retirement Answer Man, I’m going to walk you through his premise and tell you how I approach the same problem, so be sure to listen. Institutions are not emotional. You are. How does that impact your retirement planning? As I’ve said before, we’ve long followed an institutional approach to asset allocation when it comes to retirement planning simply because the rationale was that the managers of financial institutions manage assets for a living, so they must know what they are doing. Generally speaking, that’s true - but the real issue is that institutions have different investment goals than individuals do, and they approach those goals non-emotionally - which individuals do NOT do. That alone makes a huge difference in how you are going to make decisions and could set you up for some serious disappointments. On this episode, I address those difference and give you some tips for how to offset them. What IS your desired outcome for retirement… hmmmmmm? As Zig Ziglar famously quipped, “If you aim at nothing, you’ll hit it every time.” It’s so obvious you probably laugh when you hear it said so bluntly. I do too. And I think part of why I laugh is because I see how applicable it is to retirement planning. If you don’t know what you really WANT for your retirement, how will you be able to plan in a way that enables you to accomplish it? You probably won’t even get close - which would be tragic. So, on this episode’s, “Smart Sprint” segment I have a challenge for you. Are you up for it? Listen to find out. OUTLINE OF THIS EPISODE OF THE RETIREMENT ANSWER MAN [0:40] Personal accountability, potato chips on the couch, and other vices we want to change.

PRACTICAL PLANNING SEGMENT [7:05] Is asset allocation alone enough to deal with decumulation? [8:43] The differences between your private situation and how institutions handle investments. [12:24] Does the institutional approach to asset allocation fit today? [16:25] Looking at historic averages for rolling returns.
