Financial Planning Tips
Be SMART in planning your financial Goals
Success is most likely if our goals are
Specific: what do I want to achieve? What is required of me and what are my constraints?
Measurable: How much money is needed? How will I know if I am Succeeding?
Attainable: How can I do this? Is this consistent with my other financial goals?
Realistic: Am I Willing and able to do this?
Timely: what is my target date? What short-term goals must be achieved along the way to achieve my long-term goals?
Financial Planning is a Process
Despite conversations about compensation and business model preferences, financial planning can be defined conceptually as a process that accomplishes both of the following
Financial planning can be personal, for a family or corporation. The two guiding principles of ascertaining goals and developing a strategy to tackle those goals remain constant. Along the road to helping a client meet goals, a financial planner might engage in a variety of skills and tasks. Those skills and tasks are topics that fall under the umbrella of planning. While they vary from client-to-client financial planning topics are generally considered.
Whether a single financial problem is being addressed or a comprehensive financial plan is being developed, the financial planning process has eight distinct steps. This process for helping clients achieve their financial goals can be applied to the full range of client goals on a comprehensive basis. This process can also be applied on a narrower basis to only a subset of those goals or even to only a single financial goal of a client. The eight planning domains are outlined as follows.
Our goals can only be reached through a vehicle of a plan in which we must fervently believe, and upon which we must vigorously act.
Planning: The Key to Financial Success
We pass through various phases in life, each with specific financial requirements. For example, a young married couple’s financial needs are not similar to those of a retired couple. That is why long-term, continuous planning is important. There are usually three simple financial steps that the majority of people take in life. They comprised of:
Wealth accumulation Development of a strong, diversified financial base on which to grow over time. In this process, the allocation of money for a residence, investments, life insurance, and educational expenses are combined with tax planning techniques to ensure the successful use of current and potential income.
Wealth conservation The introduction and further diversification of a range of investment strategies intended to preserve and invest assets to help ensure sufficient funds for current living expenses and future retirement needs.
Wealth distribution Proper asset distribution to heirs. Good estate planning should ensure that assets are transferred orderly while reducing unnecessary tax burdens.
A financial strategy is often influenced by fluctuating economic conditions, taxation, and inheritance rules, alongside the uncertainties and shifting interests that arise over a lifetime. We have the experience to formulate a plan carefully with your situation in mind, enabling you to build a long-term financial strategy for your needs.
