He is a former CFP® licensee. In the early 1990s, in response to client questions, Mr. Bengen began research on the sustainability of retirement withdrawals from stock and bond portfolios, which gave rise to the so-called “4% Rule.” He is frequently quoted in major financial publications and appears regularly on financial industry podcasts. In 2014, he received NAPFA’s Robert J. Underwood Distinguished Service Award, and in 2017, the InvestmentNews Innovators Award. In 2023, he was awarded the Inside Information Iconoclast Award. He currently lives in SaddleBrooke, AZ, where he continues his research into the “4% Rule." For more information about Mr. Bengen and his research, please visit his website.
