Our Process
How We Help You
Our Process
We put you in control of your financial future by following a consistent, specific and methodical process of getting to know you, analysing the options you have available and developing a strategy that connects the dots between your financial decisions and what’s important to you.
Before We Meet
Once you’ve booked for your first appointment we’ll send you an email confirming the date and time of our meeting, including detail of what you need to bring, as well as a short form questionnaire.
Consultation
You will be introduced to your financial planner who will focus their time asking questions on your current situation, why you came to see us, understand what’s important to you and where you want to be. Your first appointment may take between 60 and 90 minutes. No financial advice is provided during this session and it does not cost you anything.
Engagement
After your meeting, you will receive an email summarising our understanding of your wants, needs, objectives and financials, complete with our terms of engagement and fee. This will cover the cost to prepare your written advice and implement our recommendations.
Information Collection
Once we’ve obtained agreement from you we set about formulating a strategy and prepare your initial advice. Where agreed, and required, we may obtain information from third party providers to ensure our recommendations are based on complete and up to date information. We may also reach back out to you for additional discussion or meeting to obtain further information during this process.
Financial Plan Overview
To ensure you understand and are comfortable with the recommendations we have made, your financial planner will step you through a financial plan overview highlighting where you are now and where you are likely to be. This advice is ultimately presented in the form of a financial planning document known as a Statement of Advice. This is a comprehensive document outlining your situation and our recommended strategy.
Implementation
Once your confident with our recommendations, our team will commence on the implementation of our advice encompassing your objectives, cashflow requirements, investment planning, asset protection and retirement. Full implementation may involve additional meetings or dialogue with us and 3rd party providers, for example, insurance companies.
