Introducing the RISA: Our Retirement Income Style Assessment 


RISA®: A Personalized Approach to Retirement Income Planning

Think of RISA® as a customized counseling session for you and your retirement income strategy. Using a scientific, neutral, and data-driven approach, RISA® eliminates uncertainty and helps you determine the optimal way to turn your financial resources into reliable income—tailored specifically to your needs.

Why RISA® is Different

Most advisors shape their recommendations based on their own preferences—not yours. RISA® changes that. With its powerful insights, this one-of-a-kind assessment uncovers your unique retirement preferences and style, ensuring your income strategy aligns with what works best for you.

Quick, Easy, and Insightful

The best part? You can complete the assessment anytime, anywhere—in just 20 minutes. That’s less time than it takes to do the dishes, and the insights you gain can help you perfect your retirement plan for years.

Take the RISA!
