 Why we started...

This is a new era.

Since 1983, tax qualified retirement plans such as 401(k)s, have replaced pension or “guaranteed” retirement plans. The responsibility for accumulating retirement assets rests squarely on the individual. Most people buy stock and bond mutual funds within their company sponsored qualified plan without the benefit of professional guidance. This along with other disturbing facts, have raised the question – is there a better way?

Disturbing fact #1 - Americans don't save enough money
In 1980 Americans saved about 8% of their disposable income. By 1997, we were only saving 4.5% of our disposable income, about one-third the savings rate among other industrialized nations. Today, 10 years later, our savings rate has collapsed below zero. We're consuming even more, saving even less. One expert said this was "slow-motion bankruptcy." At the beginning of 2006, the average account balance of 401(k)'s for all ages is $58,328 while the Median account balance is $19,398 Sources:  Investment Company Institute, Employee Benefit Research Institute.

Disturbing fact #2 - Average investors under perform the market significantly by themselves
Dalbar Inc., a respected Boston-based financial market research company, released a study showing that when left to their own, investors tend to significantly under perform the market. During a 19-year period from 1984 through 2002, Dalbar found the average equity investor earned an anemic 2.57% annually, versus an average inflation rate of 3.14% and an annual return of 12.22% for the S&P 500.

Disturbing fact #3 - Most people have no investment plan
The old adage that people spend more time planning their vacation than their retirement is apropos. People don't for the most part, hire money managers, so for lack of a better plan they may be very defensive in their portfolio to the point where it doesn’t return enough to keep up with expenses and inflation or they take excessive risks – a strategy that can, and will, eventually prove devastating to a portfolio.

Disturbing fact #4 - Most people have no investment goal
Few people have calculated their retirement needs and established a goal. Even fewer have a way to monitor their success year by year to make sure they are going to reach that goal.

The facts paint a grim picture for most people - these are the reasons that drove us to find answers that eventually led to the development of PerformanceSignal. Our journey started over 19 years ago and since then, many great minds and experts in their field have contributed to the making of PerformanceSignal.
