Retirement Feasibility Analysis

Retirement Feasibility Analysis

When Insurance Office of America conducts a Retirement Feasibility Analysis, we take a detailed look at your situation today and your anticipated needs in the future. Our analysis includes:

Retirement Capital Needs Analysis
A RCN matches a client’s lifestyle goals with a year-by-year cash flow report. This financial roadmap is the first step towards comprehensive wealth management; it becomes the benchmark by which we can then define future goals and design the portfolio strategies.

Investment Policy Statement
An IPS provides the blueprint of how to build the portfolio that will fund the RCN. This is an integral piece to the overall plan. The IPS will outline how much risk the client is willing to take to achieve his or her goals. It will also define the evaluation criteria we set forth in monitoring the success of the investment managers within the portfolio.

Tax Capacity Analysis
The TCA is completed to evaluate the tax efficiency of a client’s lifestyle. It will outline possible strategies to minimize the overall tax liability from a short and long term standpoint.

Independent Objective Portfolio Analysis
This analysis compares an existing portfolio and ranks each holding based upon performance against its benchmark and peer group rankings. The IOPA will also provide alternatives in each asset class if existing holdings are at unacceptable levels. This is designed to work in tandem with the Investment Policy Statement.

Social Security Income Tax Analysis
This is done for retirees or soon-to-be retirees getting ready to elect social security. It will analyze strategies to minimize the taxes paid on social security earnings.

Asset Protection Analysis
This service helps to answer the question of how to protect the investment portfolio from long-term care exposure. We look at self-funding, traditional long-term care insurance and asset-based long-term care funding.

Legacy Solutions Study
The LSS demonstrates to a client how to maximize control and minimize taxes when it comes to leaving remaining assets to their beneficiaries. It can include charitable legacy techniques or simply answer the question of how to leave the investment portfolio to the children.

Business Transfer Study
The BTS is a comprehensive study that evaluates several methods for a business owner who is looking to retire to sell his or her business. It will weigh client-driven criteria such as asset protection of a cycled sale, minimizing tax liabilities, and even assistance in finding a buyer. The BTS will also include a Retirement Feasibility Study.

Insurance Analysis
This service is designed to evaluate and review all insurance policies held by a client. By comparing a client’s coverage with their needs we can identify if any “gaps” exist and if the existing coverage is cost competitive.
