Retirees who begin saving early hold nearly 60% of retirement assets, but about 40% wait until within ten years of retirement to begin planning. Firms should realize considerable potential exists within those nearing retirement. Nearly two-thirds of recent retirees selected advisors before retiring and about one-fifth select an advisor after retiring. Firms should focus on securing advisory relationships as early as possible. Retirement savings of $500k appear to be a tipping point as wealthier retirees view their retirement more positively. Firms should develop different value propositions for investors above and below the $500k level. 35

37. Key Findings and Recommendations When selecting specific investment vehicles, retirees focus most on security of investment principal and investment performance. When developing retirement plans advisors should ensure they address these criteria. Key investment firm selection criteria include stability, reputation, advisor expertise, and investment performance record. Firms should emphasize these criteria as they market retirement services. About 50% of retirees have reinvested their retirement funds within three years of retiring, up from about 40% in 2005. Firms should focus on securing advisory relationships as early as possible. Nearly 40% of people planning to retire within the next five years are in the process of deciding how to reinvest their retirement funds. Firms should consider this group a primary target because the money is in transition. 36
