Retirement’s hidden risk
As investors transition into retirement, one of the most dangerous and frequently overlooked threats is sequencing risk.
Even with strong average returns, the order in which returns occur can permanently impair outcomes. This risk isn’t abstract. It’s structural, behavioural, and time-sensitive — and it cannot be diversified away through traditional means.
The solution? Equity portfolios explicitly designed to deliver income and withstand early-period drawdowns, especially through dynamic, risk-managed strategies like Absolute Return Equity Income Funds.
