The Financial Planning Process
Representatives authorised to provide advice in the financial planning area are required to follow the following six steps in the financial planning process. To make an appointment with Fundzcorp Financial Services, simply call or email the details listed on this website.
1. Gathering the Data
- Income Liquidity
- Assets Tax Planning
- Liabilities Estate Planning
- Current Investments Education
2. Identifying your goals
Our planners will get to know you and will identify your financial circumstances, needs and objectives. This process is generally referred to as “knowing your client” and is undertaken by completing a Client Data Form / Fact Find. As a client, you are reliant upon our services and as such, when we make a recommendation or provide advice, we must have a reasonable basis for doing so.
3. Identifying Financial Issues
At the second meeting, your Fundzcorp financial planner will present you with a range of options and recommended strategies that can assist you in achieving your financial and investment objectives. These options and strategies form a financial plan, referred to as a Statement of Advice.
Following the discussion of the Statement of Advice, you can decide whether you would like to implement those strategies.
4. What does a Statement of Advice contain?
A Statement of Advice contains information about:
Details of your personal financial situation, goals and objectives.
Your financial planner’s strategies and recommendations as to how you can achieve your goals
- Taxation position
- Risk Profile
- Asset allocation
- Investment strategy
- Estate planning and insurance needs
- Ongoing financial advice needs
- Initial and ongoing fees
5. Implementation
When you are comfortable with the strategy your Fundzcorp financial planner has recommended, it’s time to set the plan in motion.
The Statement of Advice will include a list of action priorities required to implement the recommendations indicating responsible parties, action required and timing.
Your Fundzcorp financial planner will assist you in preparing the paperwork necessary to invest in the selected products, and then lodge them on your behalf with the appropriate organisations.
6. Reviewing Your Plan
Periodic reviews and updates of the client’s Statement of Advice and the implementation strategy will be clearly stated. For example, reviews can be made at the request of the client, at intervals of six months or annually.
