PFS Workshop: Volatility Controlled Investing by Malcolm Jones

This workshop is a thought provoking session that through attending you will better understand:

• A different approach to risk management is required during decumulation than accumulation.
• It is possible to get a different outcome than expected:
• lowest returning fund can give highest wealth
• best performing fund can give lowest wealth.
• Managing the sequence of returns, especially in the early years of retirement, is the key challenge.
• Focus should be on providing a solution that avoids short-term losses and exhibits low volatility characteristics, whilst generating sufficient wealth.

Cost: Free to PFS members.

Parking: FOC at Victoria Way car park (sat nav GU21 8EW). Please park on the fourth level and use the pedestrian bridge to HG Wells reception where your ticket will be endorsed.
