October ETEPC Luncheon Meeting
Please join us Wednesday October 17, 2018 at Hollytree Country Club from 11:30am - 1pm for a luncheon meeting. Our speaker for this event will be Michael Finke, Ph.D., CFP®
The objective of this presentation is to recognize the life cycle implications of a sustained low return environment on retirement planning. I will discuss the evidence that historically low dividend and bond yields predict lower future returns, the implications of increasing longevity among higher-income workers, the relation between expected returns and optimal retirement savings, and the impact of increasing longevity and lower returns on optimal savings rates. I will also introduce a range of investment and behavioral solutions that become more attractive when portfolio return expectations are more modest.

Dr. Finke completed his doctorate in consumer economics at The Ohio State University in 1998 and in finance from the University of Missouri in 2011.
