Key Highlights from the Webinar:

🧮 Understand Your Risk Profile: Risk tolerance plays a key role in determining the right asset allocation for retirement. Don’t put all your eggs in one basket! Diversify your investments across different asset classes, such as equity, debt, and real estate.

📈 Beat Inflation: To maintain the purchasing power of your savings, aim for a rate of return that outpaces inflation. Consider investing in assets with the potential for growth to keep your funds in line with inflation. Equity investments best suit long-term goals (10+ years), while liquid funds offer short-term flexibility.

💸 Systematic Withdrawal Plans (SWPs): SWPs can help you withdraw a regular income from your investments without depleting your principal. A general rule of thumb is to withdraw 0.75% to 1% of your corpus annually.

💰 Balance Funds: If you’re seeking a middle ground between high-risk equity and low-risk debt, balance funds offer a blend of both. They allow for potential growth while mitigating some risk.

🆘 Emergency Funds: Have a plan to access funds during an emergency. Keep some of your savings in liquid assets like fixed deposits (FDs) to provide a safety net for unexpected emergencies.

Retirement planning is an ongoing process. Regularly review your investments and adjust your strategies as needed to ensure they align with your financial goals and risk tolerance. Remember, it’s not about timing the market, but about time in the market! Don’t be afraid to consult with a financial advisor for personalized guidance and advice.
