Strategies if you are close to or in retirement
Everything depends on where you are in your retirement planning journey - but creating a plan is key. For some people, there is an opportunity for some growth if you have extra cash and you're looking to enter the market. For others, you may have lost some ground in your retirement accounts, and you need to rebuild that, but how do you do that?
Three types of accounts you should consider having heading in to retirement:
- Liquidity (Emergency cash savings that can cover sudden expenses)
- Guaranteed income (that can help cover your essential monthly expenses)
- a portfolio designed for growth that can help keep up with inflation and rising cost-of-living expenses
