Comprehensive Financial Planning
Comprehensive Financial Planning
Financial planning is the process of looking at your entire financial picture to formulate a plan to accomplish your short- and long-term goals. From purchasing a home and saving for your children’s education to planning for retirement, working with a financial advisor can help you create a plan to meet your current financial obligations while building long-term wealth.
Understanding the Comprehensive Financial Planning Process
While the financial planning process is tailored to each person’s situation, the first step is taking stock of your financial situation and clarifying goals. Other steps include:
- Determine cash flow and expenses
- Consider priorities and goals
- Develop a plan seeking to meet financial goals
- Monitor the plan and adjust as necessary
- Calculate net worth
Financial plans don’t have a set template, and certain situations may require special planning measures. The following situations should be addressed in a comprehensive plan and revised as necessary.
- Retirement strategy
- Risk management plan
- Long-term investment strategies
- Tax-reduction strategy
- Estate plan
A financial planner plays a vital role in monitoring your plan and will help you make the necessary adjustments as your priorities, and financial situation changes.
