Your Financial Roadmap: A Clear Plan for Your Future
What if you could replace all your financial stress and uncertainty with a single, clear-cut plan?
For most people, “financial planning” sounds complex or is something they think is only for the very wealthy. In reality, a financial plan is simply a roadmap. It’s a comprehensive, step-by-step guide that connects your life goals—like paying off your home, educating your children, or retiring comfortably—with your daily financial decisions.
At Concord Private Wealth, our primary goal is to create this roadmap with you. We’re committed to simplifying the complex and translating your goals into a tangible plan you can actually understand and follow.
What is a Financial Plan?
A financial plan (also known as a Statement of Advice) is a comprehensive document that serves as your personal blueprint for building and protecting your wealth.
It’s the end result of our detailed process. It’s not just “advice”—it’s a written strategy that clearly outlines:
- Where you are now: A clear snapshot of your current financial position (assets, debts, income, and expenses).
- Where you want to go: A defined set of your personal and financial goals.
- How to get there: The specific, prioritised recommendations on insurance, investments, superannuation, and cash flow to bridge the gap.
Our Financial Planning Process
We believe in a “Protection First” philosophy. Our process is designed to be thorough and logical, ensuring we build your financial house on a rock-solid foundation.
Here’s how we work with you, every step of the way:
Step 1: Discover (Your Goals & Needs)
This is the most important step. We sit down for a no-obligation chat to understand what’s truly important to you. We’ll discuss your goals, your values, your current situation, and your concerns. We’ll also conduct a thorough assessment of your true tolerance for risk.
Step 2: Strategise (Build Your Roadmap)
Once we have a clear picture, our team does the work. We analyse your current position, stress-test your existing strategies, and identify all the opportunities and risks. We then build a draft “Financial Roadmap” that details our specific recommendations for:
- Protection: Ensuring your family and income are secure.
- Debt & Cash Flow: Creating a plan to manage debt and free up your income.
- Superannuation: Optimising your funds to minimise fees and maximise growth.
- Investments: Building a “Core-Satellite” portfolio aligned with your goals.
Step 3: Present (Plain-English Plan)
We present your completed Financial Roadmap to you. We walk you through it page by page, in plain English—no jargon. This is a collaborative meeting where you can ask every question you have. Our goal is for you to leave this meeting with a feeling of clarity and complete confidence in the path ahead.
Step 4: Implement (Action & Setup)
A plan is useless without action. Once you’re 100% comfortable, we manage the entire implementation process for you. This includes all the paperwork for setting up your insurance, opening new investment accounts, and consolidating your super. We do the heavy lifting so you don’t have to.
Step 5: Review (Stay on Track)
Life doesn’t stand still, and neither should your plan. We schedule regular reviews to ensure your plan stays on track, make adjustments as your life changes (e.g., new job, new home, new child), and keep you accountable to your long-term goals.
