Our Investment Planning service is based on these simple facts: Market timing doesn’t work! Creating and preserving wealth needs diversification! Focus on the long-term, and don’t let short-term diversions distract you! Investing is about more than just making money – it’s also about helping you pursue your financial goals!
Here’s a preview of what our Investment Planning service cover:
Understanding your financial goals: Through an intense yet structured “Getting to Know You” process, we’ll understand what your financial goals are, and we’ll help you prioritize some of the most pressing short, medium and long-term financial objectives you’d like to accomplish.
Analyze a point-in-time snapshot: The next step is to analyze where you are today, in terms of your savings and current investment portfolio. Sometimes, this phase of our review results in actionable steps that can immediately benefit you – like cutting your losses in a sinking investment, or leveraging some profit-harvesting and tax-selling opportunities in highly successful ones.
Proposing an investment strategy: With that information in hand, we can draw-up comprehensive personalized investment strategies that aims to help you pursue your financial objectives. This may be accomplished by building upon your existing portfolio, or proposing a set of cost-effective, tax-efficient, age-appropriate, risk-averse investments that are aligned with your personal financial goals.
Implementing the plan: Our Investment Planning approach is dynamic, and constantly evolves with your changing circumstances. We’ll guide and advise you on investment plan transitions as you go through life and life-style changes.
Watching over your investments: We’ll monitor and review your investments, plans and strategies in light of changing investment climates.
Consult, advise and counsel: Ours is an ongoing partnership. Throughout our relationship with you, we’ll keep you informed, and communicate constantly with you about proposed changes and potential risks or opportunities for your investments.
Cash value life insurance can be a valuable hedge to an investment portfolio, offering several benefits that help lower overall risk:
Non-Correlation with Market Assets: Cash value life insurance is not directly tied to the stock or bond markets. This means that its value remains stable even during market volatility, providing a hedge against market risk.
Guaranteed Growth: Policies like whole life insurance offer guaranteed cash value growth. This predictable growth can act as a stabilizing force within a portfolio, balancing out more volatile investments.
Tax Advantages: The cash value component grows tax-deferred, and policyholders can access it through loans or withdrawals without immediate tax consequences. This can provide a tax-efficient income stream or financial buffer during market downturns.
Liquidity: The cash value can be accessed relatively easily, offering liquidity that can be used for various financial needs without having to sell other investments at a loss.
Estate Planning: The death benefit from a life insurance policy is typically income tax-free, providing a tax-efficient way to transfer wealth to beneficiaries.
By incorporating cash value life insurance into an investment portfolio, you can achieve greater diversification, reduce overall risk, and enhance financial stability.
