Savings patterns, Time-horizon, time-based market returns
Planners must make a variety of recommendations; some with a sound theoretic basis, some based on rules-of-thumb or best guesses. Most financial planners agree that in selecting portfolios whose assets are held for a particular goal, you should consider time-horizon, the importance of the goal to the client, and the client’s level of risk-aversion. This paper deals with the impact of goal-based time-horizons on investor portfolios.
