Making Retirement Easier Through Lifetime Income Solutions with David Blanchett
Defined contribution plans have been instrumental in helping people save for retirement. However, these plans often fail to protect individuals against longevity risk. Incorporating lifetime income solutions like annuities can help people prevent outliving their savings during retirement.
In this episode, Jack talks with David Blanchett, Managing Director, Portfolio Manager, and Head of Retirement Research at PGIM DC Solutions. In this role, David develops solutions to help improve retirement outcomes for investors with a specific focus on defined contribution plans. He is also responsible for the portfolio management of the PGIM Target Date Funds. Before joining PGIM, David was the Head of Retirement Research for Morningstar Investment Management LLC and the Director of Consulting and Investment Research for the Retirement Plan Consulting Group at Unified Trust Company.
