What Did You Receive from RIIA® in the Last 10 Years?
Our first 10 years were focused on a dialog across the business silos to understand the strategic view and to address the practical impact of the “Three Disruptions” that retirement brings to the financial industry. As the industry experiences these disruptions, we built an invaluable network of clients, advisors, vendors, researchers and executives. In particular, this led to the development and validation of the RMA® Curriculum to take practitioners to a higher state of service. Our first 10 years produced a portfolio of membership value captured in:
- 19 Professional Conferences and cross-silo networking with a strategic view (Our LinkedIn Group has move than 8,000 members)
- RIIA’s IP made available to all members many of whom integrated it in their offerings including: Measures of Fundedness, Household Balance Sheet, Probability-based vs. Safety-first, etc.
- 11 issues of the RMJ professional journal, twice a month VLC webinars since 2014 (Over 80 held since 2010 and a rolling 30 available for replay)
- The RMA, a professional designation with curriculum publications available on Amazon (more than 500 retail purchases on Amazon and more than 1,300 in bulk purchases since 2013).
