Financial Planning Service - How Does It Work?

  1.  Understanding you
    As independent financial planners, we aim to identify where you are now, how you got there, and what you want to achieve in the future.

    We do this by a comprehensive data gathering and an analysis of your current and future spending patterns.

    Through this approach, we help you to set your financial goals.
  2. Creating your financial plan
    We identify the resources that you have now, those you will have in the future, and what you might need to cover other eventualities.

    We then help you to set a strategy for your goals, and more importantly tell you the truth about how your money really works.

    This does not involve financial products, just common sense financial principles and unbiased financial advice.

    We use state of the art software to evaluate your financial life now and how your choices will impact on your financial future.  This will give you a greater understanding of the implications of your financial decisions.  This is a highly collaborative and interactive stage which allows you to be at the centre of your financial decisions.

    As we discuss your plans, we can make changes and assess alternative scenarios so that you can immediately see the implications of different routes towards your goals.

    Once we have agreed your investment management strategy we will prepare a written plan of action.
  3. Putting your plan into action
    Only when we have set out your financial goals can we set about recommending an investment management portfolio.

    We would then go through a rigorous research process to ensure we recommend the most appropriate products and providers on the market.
  4. Reviewing your plan
    We schedule at least an annual investment management meeting to regularly review your plan and your current circumstances to ensure that you remain on track to achieve your goals.
