Investing for retirement is a multi-decade proposition. However, many times most portfolio modelling techniques aren't up to the challenge, particularly for those close to or in retirement. We believe

1. that many asset allocation models are flawed in terms of the time horizon used to measure diversification benefits, and
2. that modeling also often doesn't factor in inflation risk that is particularly notable for DC participants.

In this webinar, we will review new PGIM research that takes a broader lens to consider asset classes not typical in DC portfolios. We will give examples of two alternative asset classes, commodities and real estate, that are currently underutilized and explain how taking a longer-term perspective may lead to more optimal investment menus and solutions.
