The #1 concern of many clients who are at or nearing retirement:
“Will I have enough money to last the rest of my life, or will I
outlive my assets?”
![Page 2: PDRP PLUS INTRODUCTION FOR FINANCIAL PLANNERS](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082915/5473a7d5b4af9fc80a8b53f6/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
To answer this question, financial planners use projections:
Sometimes based on one set of future asset earnings Known as single path or “deterministic”
Sometimes based on multiple sets of future asset earnings Known as stochastic, or “Monte Carlo” testing
Generally considered superior to single path Outcomes expressed as probabilities, not one answer

But… Both projection methods ignore or miscompute some
very basic realities of retirement life. Namely… Long-term Care Prescription Drugs Longevity
The issue: When calculating the financial risks of retirement life, Financial Planners and their clients are working with inaccurate probabilities.

Key issues with today’s projections (an actuarial perspective):
Long-term care costs Either not accounted for, or treated as a fixed event (e.g., a two
year stay in a nursing home starting at age 80). But long-term care costs can range between zero and over a million
dollars Prescription drug costs
Generally not considered, or based on current drug use, with an inflation adjustment.
But prescription drug costs can vary from very low amounts to over a half-million dollars.
Mortality is not incorporated accurately. The projections assume either one fixed age, or a few fixed ages. But the true probability is that death can occur at any age.

Evaluating the probability of risk is the realm of actuarial science.
What’s needed is an actuarial tool that financial planners can use.

PDRP Plus (Actuarial) Analysis vs Traditional Financial Projection
Traditional Projection
# of Asset Runs 500 (can be adjusted) 500 (can be adjusted within limits)
# of Liability Runs 25,000 Under 10
Total Number of Runs 12,500,000 Under 5000
Long Term Care Liabilities Customized Plan of care
Dynamically modeled using probability distribution
An event assumed to occur, oftentimes an expensive and unlikely one
Prescription Drug Costs Based on getting chronic conditions or Alzheimer’s disease
Either ignored or current level of spending used with inflation
Morbidity Customized Not customized
Mortality Customized, based on questionnaire (in some cases, based on analysis of additional medical information)
Variable - Projects varying times of death
Not based on mortality profile of client
Fixed – one or two ages only examined

PDRP Plus (Actuarial) Analysis vs Traditional Financial Projection (cont.)
Traditional Projection
Asset Information used in Stochastic Asset Testing
Each asset categorized into one or more asset classes. Historical means, variances and covariances used, adjusted for inflationMultivariate normal distribution used to project asset returnsFull override capability depending on client preferences – means, asset class methodology can be overridden
Results can be duplicated; full control over random number generator
Year by year output by scenario is available for close examination
Varies greatly by software provider:Could project just a single asset with a mean and standard deviation;Could project actual assets, but with negative returns artificially set to zero;Could project asset classes, with historical or projected means, variances, covariances;
Results generally vary each time projection run, even with exact same input; no control over random number generator
Year by year output can’t be examined
Setting Strategies Allows insurance, plan of care, spending, annuity and investment strategies to be analyzed based on customized morbidity and mortality profiles of client to determine the chances of meeting goals
Strategies not customized to morbidity or mortality profiles Chances of meeting goals only done on asset side, not on liability side
