Beyond the 4% rule: Sustainable Withdrawal Strategies from Bengen to Kitces
Duration: 45 – 60 mins
Since Bill Bengen pioneered the ‘safe’ withdrawal rate research in 1994, researchers have developed several adaptations to the original framework, from the Guardrail strategies developed by financial planner Jon Guyton, to the Ratcheting rule developed by Michael Kitces. Further research identified that spending tends to decline progressively in retirement. This led researchers to coin terms such as the ‘Go-Go’ years, ‘Slow-Go’ years and the ‘No-Go’ years, to describe the unique phases in retirement.
This session is a deep dive into the research behind the sustainable withdrawal rate framework including:
– Summary of the pros and cons of main flexible withdrawal strategies
– Impact of fees, asset allocation and market valuation metric
– Adjusting withdrawal rates for longevity
– Aged-banded approach to retirement withdrawal
– Crafting a personalised Withdrawal Policy Statement
