Lovewell Blake Financial Planning

Financial planning is centred around creating a long-term, coherent strategy to help you meet your lifetime financial goals and aspirations, through the efficient management of your finances. It is about giving you peace of mind if you are “on track” and creating a roadmap for your finances if you aren’t. Think of financial planning like you would think about planning a journey - everyone needs a little help along the way.

A financial plan is unique, and it is designed around your requirements. Typically, we focus on your most pressing, and important needs foremost. In terms of the scope of what is covered, we have provided a list of the key areas that will form part of your personal, financial plan.

• Objective planning

• Financial forecasting

• Disaster planning

• Financial budgeting

• Emergency fund

• Financial protection

• Tax planning

• Saving and investment planning

• Retirement planning

• Estate planning

• Family financial planning.

Yes, however completing this journey alone without the skilled services of a financial adviser could be fraught with risk. We would encourage you to enlist the services of a financial adviser at Lovewell Blake Financial Planning Limited to maximise the opportunities available to you, and your loved ones. Lovewell Blake Financial Planning Limited will help you alleviate any burden you might have by using years of experience, knowledge, expertise, and practice, ensuring that all aspects of a financial plan, and maximising the various tax wrappers are considered carefully and executed promptly and appropriately.

Efficiently managing your investments and making the right financial decisions takes time, knowledge, and effort. It’s not a one-time decision, either. With time representing a precious commodity for most of us, utilising the expertise of a financial adviser could not just save you and your family time, but it could save you money too. Time is money, and there could be a significant cost to delaying the right financial decisions or prolonging the wrong ones. Our existing clients value our services and many have had a longstanding relationship with our financial advisers that extend to their relatives, and businesses.

At Lovewell Blake Financial Planning, we will recommend a suitable investment product that fits in with your financial plan. We will do this by researching the whole of the marketplace. Separately, we will establish your attitude to investment risk by completing a risk-profiling questionnaire to assist us in designing an investment portfolio for your proposed investment that is commensurate with your chosen level of investment risk. Each year, we will review the product, and its associated investment strategy to ensure it remains suitable and is on track to achieve the investment objectives that were agreed from outset.

Budgeting normally concentrates on the short-term, with an objective in sight. This could be to reduce debt, or save for a family holiday, and is normally centred around your money. Financial planning, however, takes a long-term view on your finances, liabilities, savings, investments, retirement aspirations, and protecting you, and your loved ones.
