MY METHODOLOGY
I am first and foremost a person who believes in teaching my clients how to manage money and only later will focus on any products.
I make sure my client’s day to day finances (expenses and purchases) make sense and that they can afford their current lifestyles.
It all starts with a budget and then we work on the “financial house” getting in place strong financial foundations and then building wealth and investments.
When I know what you want, I build a set of expert strategies and decision-making tools, to help you sort through the maze of modern finance…
WHAT DOES A FINANCIAL ADVISOR DO?
My job as a financial advisor is to help you identify and reach your financial goals. A financial advisor will typically consider your personal circumstances to make sure these goals are realistic and achievable and provide recommendations to help you achieve them.
Advice can range from once-off advice, to more comprehensive advice like setting up an investment plan or ongoing advice which may involve regular reviews.
BENEFITS OF A FINANCIAL ADVISOR
What are the potential benefits of using an independent financial advisor, like myself?
There are several potential benefits to using an independent financial advisor. For example, I could help you:
- Identify short, medium and long-term goals
- Create practical strategies to achieve these goals
- Feel more in control of your finances
- Develop an investment plan
- Protect your assets
- Plan for retirement
For some people, a benefit of choosing an independent financial advisor, may be the reassurance that the advice given is impartial and not based on sales incentives.
