Webinar: Bringing cash flow planning to life

This article was written by Hazel Bowen, Senior Wealth Planner, and originally published by Canaccord.

Cash flow planning is a powerful, multi-faceted tool that demonstrates how your financial situation evolves over the years, considering your assets, liabilities, income, expenditure and – importantly – your goals for the future. We can emphasise the benefits, but how many of you have seen a cash flow plan in action?

Cash flow planning is a visual journey: our Wealth Planners use a model to assess how realistic your financial goals are and determine the best path to achieve them. The plan provides a deeper understanding of your financial choices and risks, helping you make informed decisions about your future once you have consulted a Wealth Planner first.

Hazel Bowen, Senior Wealth Planner and cash flow planning specialist, presented a live demonstration in our recent webinar, walking through the details of the model and showcasing its wide range of benefits. She also highlighted the dynamic nature of a cash flow plan – adapting as your life evolves. As Hazel says: ‘it’s not about the plan; it’s about the planning’.

She also discussed:

• What information goes into a cash flow plan
• How a plan dynamically evolves over time
• How it can help couples and families facilitate meaningful conversations
