Target-Date Radar (TEST#####)
Our cloud-based target-date fund analytics and reporting platform delivers a powerful solution that helps retirement plan advisors meet client suitability and fiduciary obligations while also helping asset managers better understand and demonstrate how their products measure up to competitors.
Delivering retirement plan advisors with an established, repeatable and documentable process for assessing, selecting and monitoring TDFs in three easy steps:
- 1. Decision questionnaire
- 2. Suitability overview & selection
- 3. Reporting
1. Decision questionnaire
Gather information on a plan’s objectives and participant demographics and behavior. Establish preferences across Target-Date Radar Suitability Criteria: Active vs. Passive Management, Open vs. Proprietary Architecture, Non traditional Assets, Landing Point (To vs. Through) and Glide Path Shape (LVI).
2. Suitability overview & selection
Generate a custom scoring system based on Suitability Criteria preferences. Interactively navigate the ranked universe of TDFs.
3. Reporting
Top scoring TDFs are presented in a visually intuitive format with an extensive range of charts and statistics for accurate decision-making. Generate current vs. proposed comparative reports.
