FAQs: Investments
A financial plan is a personalized roadmap for achieving your financial goals and it’s an important tool to help keep your investments on track. At Santander, we conduct a comprehensive analysis of your current financial situation, then we’ll work with you to create a plan for your goals, whether it’s for a big purchase, securing your retirement, or for growing your rainy-day fund. Your plan will highlight ways to reach your goals, like reducing spending, changing your investment strategy, or saving more.
A personalized plan can cover a range of concerns, including generational wealth transfer, investment planning, incapacity planning, education funding and income planning. It will also consider your prioritized goals, such as building a tax efficient income plan or creating a custom investment strategy based around personalized risk levels.
We review your plan to analyze the projected data and determine your current financial situation. This allows us to advise you on your roadmap. It also helps us make specific recommendations. For instance, if your current portfolio is concentrated in one specific market sector, a recommendation might be to diversify the portfolio to reduce risk.
Finally, it helps us to conduct annual reviews with you, to track your progress. Changes in your life today often will change your goals for tomorrow. It’s important to continually update your plan to ensure your goals and concerns are being addressed.
Although your current needs may not seem complex and you have a long time horizon, the sooner you begin planning, the more that time works in your favor. The later you start financial planning, your time horizon works against you.
One of the benefits of financial planning is to help identify a financial goal, like charitable giving, and prioritize it so that it can be accomplished along with your other goals. Beneficiaries, legacy, trusts, and other giving strategies may be appropriate.
Yes, you choose whether you want to focus on income or growth with your investment dollars, or a combination of both. A Financial Advisor can show you various ways to assist with this goal.
