The 3 Layers of Diversification Every Retiree Needs
You might have a dozen funds spread across multiple accounts and still not be truly diversified. If your retirement portfolio is concentrated in one asset class, one risk level, or one tax category, you could be more exposed than you realize. In this episode, Jaime Cowper, a financial advisor who has spent over 11 years helping clients plan for retirement, explains the three layers of real diversification: asset class variety, risk category alignment across accounts, and tax qualification balance. Jaime walks through why so many pre-retirees unknowingly hold overlapping investments and how a thoughtful bucket strategy can help create more balance. If you are approaching retirement and want to understand whether your portfolio is actually working the way you think it is, this one is for you.
