Ameriprise Financial Inc. Research Report

On May 14, 2013, The Retirement Derailers survey, released by Ameriprise Financial Inc. (Ameriprise Financial), found that the vast majority (90%) of Americans aged 50-70 with $100,000 or more in investable and retirement assets have experienced at least one "derailer" - an economic or life event that has made an impact on their retirement savings goals. "Expecting the unexpected is clearly more important than ever in preparing for retirement," said Suzanna de Baca, Vice President of Wealth Strategies at Ameriprise Financial. "We know the recession had a huge impact on American pre-retirees and retirees, but families are realizing that other unexpected events like supporting a grown child or grandchild can also hit the bottom line - both immediately and long-term. The good news is that these unanticipated events don't always have to be retirement derailers - they can be addressed with a plan in place."
