Financial planning

All of the services that we offer fall under the umbrella of financial planning. This is a term that is widely used, but what in fact is “financial planning”?

We believe that true financial planning is a process of money management which encompasses a range of strategies around budgeting, tax planning, retirement, estate planning, investment strategies and insurance. We do not believe that any of the above strategies should be formulated in isolation as they all impact on each other.

We feel really strongly that education systems worldwide do not do enough to educate people on how to efficiently handle their finances. It is after all the one common denominator that everyone has to deal with and it never ceases to amaze us how financially illiterate many people are and how inappropriate many of their financial strategies are.
As holistic financial planners we advise on all of the above mentioned disciplines and caution you against inappropriate financial decisions. As we are a boutique sized company and are not part of any larger company with a vested interest in our performance, we are able to dispense what we believe to be objective best advice not aligned to any product or product providers.

All of this advice is contained in a written financial plan which is discussed with each client and signed off by them. This is then utilized as the foundation for the clients overall financial strategy and is reviewed on a regular basis to take into account changes to a clients circumstances.

Our ultimate intention is to partner with you through the different stages of life to assist you in creating wealth, protecting you and your family’s lifestyle, achieving financial security and ensuring that your assets are transferred from one generation to the next in the manner in which you envisaged.
