Resources for COVID-19

Older Adults

Growing older doesn't diminish the need for financial guidance.

When a person retires, their need for insurance and financial services guidance doesn’t end. In fact, for many it’s just the beginning. NAIFA members help their retired clients adjust their budgets and estimate expenses, develop disbursement strategies for their retirement savings, find healthcare as well as limited and extended care solutions, and create legacies to leave for loved ones or charities. NAIFA members also provide front-line protection against scams targeting older Americans.

 

During the COVID-19 outbreak, NAIFA members are a vital resource for their senior clients. The following are additional sources of information specifically compiled for older Americans.
