Independent Financial Advisor-

Most people dealing with their finances can at times seem overwhelming. From planning for retirement to choosing how to invest their money, to selecting an appropriate mortgage for their home, navigating through the array of options is daunting. To help guide them through these difficult but highly important decisions they need a professional. And that is where an Independent Financial Advisor comes in.

The role of an Independent Financial Advisor is to help individuals and families to manage their finances so as to meet their goals. One of the most important points is that this is a collaborative process between the client and the financial advisor. The advisor will consult and discuss with the clients how that they can best meet their objectives given their financial situation.

An Independent Financial Advisor will give advice about some or all of the following:

• Retirement Planning
• Tax Planning
• Estate Planning
• Funding Education
• Investment Planning
• Debt Reduction
• Budgeting
• Business Succession Planning

When the independent financial advisor is either unqualified or does not have sufficient background on a particular topic, such as tax law, they will typically be able to refer you to someone who can discuss this area. [Read more…] about What Does An Independent Financial Advisor Do?
