27 Sources and disclosures Slide 24: 1. David Blanchett The Impact of Expert Guidance on Participant Savings and Investment Behaviors, Working Paper (August). The percentage of participants who increased their savings deferral rates is determined by comparing each participant s savings deferral rate prior to and after using the Morningstar Retirement Manager service. Participants who increased their savings deferral rate after using Morningstar Retirement Manager are included in this data point. 2. David Blanchett The Impact of Expert Guidance on Participant Savings and Investment Behaviors, Working Paper (August). For purposes of this study, do-it-yourself participants (those mentioned as not previously using Morningstar s advice and managed account service) are defined as those who have an allocation of 20% or less to an investment classified as an allocation (such as a target-date) fund by Morningstar, Inc. prior to using Morningstar Retirement Manager. The portfolio asset allocations held by participants prior to using Morningstar Retirement Manager were classified by investment type, and those meeting the definition of a do-it-yourself investor s portfolio were analyzed to determine number of funds held in the portfolio. 3. David Blanchett The Impact of Expert Guidance on Participant Savings and Investment Behaviors, Working Paper (August). Average equity allocations of participants prior to using Morningstar Retirement Manager were analyzed from May 2007 to February 2014 and compared to the value of the S&P 500 Index. Slide 19: This figure represents the potential wealth increase an average 25-year-old could have at retirement when using a managed accounts service versus an average 25-year-old that did not use a managed accounts service. The analysis is based on 58,444 participants who used the Morningstar Retirement Manager SM service between the dates of January 2006 and February Participants are grouped by the age when they first implemented or received advice from Morningstar Retirement Manager and are assumed to have an initial retirement account value of $0 and a retirement age of 65. The results show that the average participant who first uses Morningstar Retirement Manager as a 25-year-old with a 0.4% annual fee could have 38.9% more retirement income at retirement than an average 25-year-old participant who did not use Morningstar Retirement Manager. Similarly, the average 45- year-old using Morningstar Retirement Manager with a 0.4% annual fee could have 23.3% more and the average 55-year-old could have 13.8% more retirement income at retirement. The amount of additional retirement income attributed to the use of Morningstar Retirement Manager at retirement varies by age, and tends to decrease with the age the participant first uses the Morningstar Retirement Manager service. Additionally, the potential amount of additional retirement income increases as the management fee decreases; conversely, decreases as the management fee increases. The average difference in the saving rate before and after using Morningstar Retirement Manager is calculated for each age group. The savings rate was applied to an assumed median income value for each age group. In a similar manner, the average difference in portfolio investment return before and after using Morningstar Retirement Manager was calculated for each age group. Six different annual fee levels (0.0%, 0.2%, 0.4%, 0.6%, 0.8%, and 1.0%) for the Morningstar Retirement Manager advice service were analyzed and the fee was applied to the average portfolio balance for each age group on an annual basis. The final account value for each age group at retirement age was then compared for each annual fee level. This analysis does not account for all portfolio costs such as fees, taxes, or expenses other than the annual account fee. If included, they would lower the potential amount of additional retirement income at retirement shown in this analysis. In no way should the results of this analysis be considered indicative or a guarantee of the future performance of an actual client using Morningstar Retirement Manager or considered indicative of the actual performance achieved by actual participants that have used Morningstar Retirement Manager. Actual results of participants that use Morningstar Retirement Manager may differ substantially from the results shown here and may include an individual participant incurring a loss. Morningstar Associates, LLC does not guarantee that the results of their advice, recommendations, or the objectives of Morningstar Retirement Manager will be achieved.
