Important Things in Financial Planning Process

Important things in Financial Planning Process


I have always recommended to all my friends and clients that make a well financial plan and live a life filled with enjoy and peace. Financial plan consist from some process like recognizing the goal, make a income and expenditure statement, projection the needed amount of money in the future for fulfill the particular goal, deploy the money according to asset allocation and risk appetite with the investment timeframe etc.

During the process of financial planning the investor and planner discuss about some numbers like a rate of return of the different asset classes, expected inflation no. and monthly expenses after retirement. It is very important to agree on a particular numbers after discussing the plan. There are things like inflation and return of the assets you and planner may be have different opinion. There are also things where you or planner can predict no. very easy.

For example, if you discuss about current assets, a financial planner can tell you that whether it is good or bad based on their market knowledge and in majority cases there is no more room left for debate or discussion for the asset quality. In other side, to decide whether your monthly expenses Rs 50,000 or Rs 1 lakh per month, the investor can arrive to the final no. and there or no more room left to argue for the planner.

To decide the inflation no. for next 20-25 years there may be different opinion of investors and planner. Even 1% - 2% different in the no. makes a big difference due to compound effect. It is better to adopt conservative approach to decide the return of equity or debt asset. After all it depends on your knowledge and experience of the market. Financial plan review is also the important part of any financial plan. If any changes happen in income, expenses, market or financial goal then there should be a review of plan.
