Introduction
The purpose of a retirement financial planner is to help individuals who are at or near retirement build a plan to ensure they meet their retirement income and other financial goals throughout their nonworking years and manage the many risks they may face. As coordinated planning and better decision-making can improve retirement security, retirement income planning is a very rewarding area within financial planning. Research has shown that better decisions can make a big difference in retirement income, and with a retirement income planning certification like the RICP®, you can help your clients do well by doing good.
WHY CHOOSE THE RICP®?
RICP® designation holders report having more confidence in their ability to serve senior clients as retirement financial planners, a broader perspective of the field, and the ability to immediately use what they learn to give retirement financial advice in their professional roles.
Our retirement financial planning program enables you to make better, more informed decisions regarding your clients’ retirement income. Demand for retirement expertise in this day and age is strong: as retirement age in the U.S. slowly edges up, current projections indicate that 10,000 Baby Boomers retire daily. This is a trend expected to continue through 2030 and changing laws and corporate cultures have more people than ever thinking about their retirement financial plan.
