Abstract

Abstract: We build an effective, realistic retirement income plan for an individual investor. We propose real time frameworks with such mechanism that investor give some inputs such as number of investment instruments, income, and length of the time period before retirement using Modern Portfolio theory. This aim to develop a retirement framework using fundamentals of Modern Portfolio Theory as per investor’s needs on asset allocation assuming investor’s risk appetite reduces as investor ages in life and worries for real retirement income planning by comparing different statistical models scenarios. In each of the Scenarios we have 3 changing probability profile scenarios to allow for flexibility to the investor to withdraw from the portfolio for personal needs with increasing probability, decreasing probability and uniform probability of withdrawal throughout the portfolio investment time horizon. The results clearly reveal that there is no one best model for different investors as each investor is different with different objective functions. Keywords: Retirement, Social Securit, Modern Portfolio theory
