The Basics of Income Allocation

By CE Corner

Income allocation mitigates or eliminates the impact of luck on a portfolio by using available retirement savings as efficiently as mathematically possible.

In this course by Jim C. Otar you’ll learn the seven-step process of income allocation so you can effectively address luck when planning with clients.

A detailed plan that incorporates income allocation “can create significant professional respect and trust” and “differentiate an advisor,” Otar says.

After taking this course, financial advisors will understand:

• the impact of luck on a portfolio

• the impact of asset allocation on a portfolio

• what income allocation is, its purpose, and how it differs from asset allocation

• how portfolios benefit from income allocation

• the seven steps of the income allocation process and how to execute them

Jim C. Otar is a retired financial planner and engineer, and founder of www.retirementoptimizer.com. He is also an author of investing-related books, including Advanced Retirement Income Planning (2023 update).

In the opinion of CE Corner, the content of this session aligns with FSRA’s requirements for Life and Accident & Sickness credits. However, it remains the responsibility of the individual license holder to check FSRA credits and confirm suitability.
