How it works

How it works

NEEDS ASSESSMENT

  • We work with you to define your priorities and financial objectives, mapping them out based on their individual timeframes

 

  • We organise these into categories of essential, important, and aspirational objectives

 

  • This allows us to determine the priority, appropriate risk level, and liquidity requirements for each goal

NEEDS ASSESSMENT

  • The timeframe of each goal determines the asset class we select for your investments

 

  • We match each objective with return factors, chosen for their capacity to either protect and/or fund each specific objective whilst ensuring they provide the liquidity necessary to access capital where an objective timeframe is short term in nature

CAPITAL DEMARCATION

  • We calculate the amount of capital you need to fund each specific priority, and ensure you have the available resources to meet these goals

 

  • We then calculate the funds that need to be invested today in order to reach this future goal

CAPITAL DEMARCATION

  • We then review your investment strategy to ensure its suitability against your appetite for risk within your long-term plan

 

  • Back-testing your portfolio against historic situations, and even crises, allows us to test it against theoretical crises and stressful market conditions

 

  • Our aim is to confirm that we have created a robust portfolio that meets your objectives, while still navigating volatility
