Financial Planning
Financial Planning is the process of analysing a person’s existing financial circumstances and devising a set of recommendations to protect and improve these circumstances in the future. A very important aspect of Financial Planning is to put in place a series of measures designed to help our clients achieve their future financial goals.

Financial Planning Process
- The first step is to outline and critically evaluate your current financial position by way of a Financial Factfinder. This forms the basis for any subsequent reviews and recommendations.
- We can then complete a full needs analysis report and conduct an individual risk assessment. This risk assessment allows us to match your individual tolerance for risk with our recommendations.
- We outline and agree on a set of future financial planning and wealth management objectives that you feel can be achieved over a realistic timeframe.
- Our financial consultant team provide tailored recommendations suitable to your individual needs covering every aspect of your financial objectives.
- We help you implement the financial plan in order to help you achieve your objectives.
- Going forward we help you to change your plan as your circumstances change.
- We provide you with ongoing financial advice and regular reviews to ensure you meet your objectives.
