Your Retirement Matters announced today the addition of new service.

CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. - Sept. 1, 2013 - PRLog -- Clarksville (September 01, 2013) – Your Retirement Matters  announced today the addition of new service that will focus exclusively on divorce financial planning.  “I am extremely excited about our new divorce  planning  service because it will add tremendous value to our retirement planning services, “ said Ms. Arlene Brown, Founder of Your Retirement Matters.

The U.S. Divorce statistics among people ages 50 and older, have doubled from 1990 to 2010.  And in that year, one in four U.S. divorces was in that age group. The pool of money that was intended to fund retirement for a couple will now be split in half, and must fund retirement for two people living separately. That costs a lot more. This context has set the stage for the increased need for wise financial guidance with financial issues inherent in every divorce and retirement.

Your Retirement Matters  will assist clients with:

1)  Evaluating his or her current financial situation

2)  Preparing financial scenarios of possible settlements

3)  Understanding the financial impact between changes in net worth versus working capital

4)  Developing a post-divorce financial plan

5)  Understanding how the division of marital assets impacts an individual’s retirement and overall

    financial health over time.

I believe that  the Certified Divorce Financial Analyst designation is of enormous value to all clients especially those among the 50 and older age group to help them ensure that  financial assets are analyzed for their short and long-term viability in a proposed settlement.
