Using the tool, SunTrust clients may increase retirement income by up to 33% versus a tax investment neutral approach, according to a study by an independent research group.

The Retirement Income Navigator’s three steps—plan, invest, manage—use tax-sensitive technology to develop a plan of specific actions rather than general recommendations. The tool was developed with LifeYield LLC.

“If investors draw down assets in a predictable and methodical way, they can enjoy better after-tax returns, increased retirement income and, possibly a greater bequest to heirs,” said Mark Davis, senior vice president at SunTrust Investment Services.
