Retirement, in the financial planning context, is the distinguishing milestone that separates the investing life cycle between the accumulation phase and the distribution phase. This is an important distinction for financial advisors because it means the investment strategies used, and the services provided, need to adjust to reflect this major shift in a client’s cash flow activity. Advisor demand for better solutions has driven a wave of new vendors whose laser focus on retirement planning topics has driven the entire industry forward over the last decade.
