See the Retirement Income index with no adjustment – 2028
This version of the EDHEC-Princeton Retirement Goal-Based Investing Indices represents the value of a dynamic strategy that aims to offer high probabilities of reaching attractive levels of replacement income for 20 years in retirement while securing, on an annual basis, 80% of the purchasing power in terms of retirement income of each dollar invested. To this end, the strategy is invested in two building blocks: (i) the goal-hedging portfolio, which replicates the performance of the corresponding Goal Price Index, and delivers a stable replacement income, and (ii) the performance-seeking portfolio, which offers the upside potential needed to reach high income levels with high probabilities.
The income cash flows start in January 2028 and last 20 years. They include an adjustment for the cost of living. The index value moves every month because of fluctuations in interest rates and in the equity market.

[tab title="Success Probabilities"]
Estimated Success probabilities
This figure displays the probabilities of reaching goals for the index and for a target date fund with a deterministic glide path. The essential goal is to cap the annual loss in affordable retirement income to 20% at most. An aspirational goal consists in reaching a higher level of retirement income than at the inception date; it is expressed as a multiple (130%, 150% or 200%) of the initially affordable income level. Probabilities are estimated by simulating 10,000 scenarios for the future values of the index and the target date fund. The usual disclaimer applies – see the following link for more details
