Nadia Papagiannis, senior vice president of multi-asset class solutions at Northern Trust Asset Management, talks about the income portion of portfolios for clients on the cusp of retirement. Given inflation, low interest rates and general uncertainty, advisers have their work cut out for them.
Adam Gana, managing partner of Gana Weinstein, joins Bruce to discuss a recent Finra arbitration decision overturned by a court in Georgia. They discuss the case, how Finra abitration works, and what the case means for Finra and for advisers.
Jeff and Bruce pull back the curtain a bit on how private money finds its way into RIAs in the form of investments.
