Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Praise for The Four Pillars of Retirement Plans "This up-to-the-minute book shows how the Supreme Court's recent LaRue decision has reshaped the world of retirement plans. Rules governing fiduciaries of defined benefit plans may no longer protect fiduciaries of defined contribution plans and may actually harm them. The Four Pillars of Retirement Plans is indispensable for plan sponsors and other fiduciaries, and for all those advising them, including investment advisors and attorneys." —W. Scott Simon, JD, CFP, AIFA, author of The Prudent Investor Act: A Guide to Understanding and Morningstar "Fiduciary Focus" columnist "This book is a must-read for all plan sponsors, financial advisors, and ERISA attorneys if they have any hope of defending themselves from the mountain of litigation looming on the horizon for all participant-directed retirement plans and provides a road map to easily modify antiquated procedures born in the defined benefit era that contradict today's participant-directed retirement plans. Plaintiff's counsel is sure to have read this book; if you don't, you will be defenseless in these suits." —Edward Siedle, Esq., "The Pension Detective" and President of Benchmark Financial Services, Inc. "If you are a trustee, plan sponsor, or financial advisor serious about the retirement plan marketplace, you MUST read this book, or you will be ill-equipped to deal with the fiduciary meltdown non-readers will be facing." —John Lohr, ERISA attorney and author

Download or read book The Pension Strategy written by Andrew Springett and published by Insomniac Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studies show that 90% of institutional investors, such as pension funds, reach their investment goals. However, only 11% of individual investors achieve their goals. Over the past twenty years we have witnessed both the greatest bull market of all time and one of the most devastating crashes in history. During this period, pension funds posted returns of more than double those realized by individual investors. At the same time, the institutional pensions were exposed to less than half of the risk and volatility that individual investors were forced to endure.
