There’s a lot of debate recently about the future of the retirement income market, and what good advice practices look like. That’s why we’ve chosen to sponsor a guide from Defaqto.
It explores the FCA's thematic review of retirement income advice and highlights the issues advisers should be considering. The guide also examines the range of factors which impact advice and looks at how a blended retirement income solution could help you better meet the changing needs of your clients.
Give your retirement income advice an MOT
In the first section of the report, Defaqto dive into the overall approach to evidence-based advice - and how an element of guaranteed income can be used to underpin a wider retirement income strategy.
Driven by the FCA's Retirement Income Advice Assessment Tool (RIAAT) and recent thematic review of retirement income advice, they also underline the need to clearly demonstrate the suitability of the income you’re recommending, both in value and source.
