The PGIM RetireWellTM Managed Account delivers personalized portfolios based on a participant’s unique data and preferences. We explicitly consider the different risks investors face across the lifecycle as well as calculate appropriate asset allocation based on the participant’s Needs (essential/non-discretionary) and Wants (flexible/discretionary) spending goals.
Our solution can provide a year-by-year tax efficient spending plan based on the participant’s goal and available income sources. While the program does not provide tax advice nor does it consider all the tax liabilities for an individual/household, the spending guidance can help the participant determine which accounts they should withdraw from in a given year so as to continue to grow tax-advantageous assets when possible.
