How we work
WHAT WE DO
ARDEN COURT'S primary objective is to ensure, wherever possible, that together, we achieve your objectives.
The purpose of this document is to outline the Financial Planning Process we use with our clients, in some cases over many years, to achieve those objectives. We endeavour to ensure that, wherever possible, our financial planning work is carried out to a consistent quality and that the Investment Solutions that underpin our advice are regularly reviewed to ensure their ongoing validity.
Our Financial Planning Process has been developed with reference to ‘best practice' in the financial planning profession internationally and we seek to ensure that it is continuously reviewed and updated as the economic and financial world changes. We aim to achieve a consistent quality in our financial planning work, and so the Core Solutions that underpin our advice are regularly reviewed to assess their ongoing validity.
We try to ensure that our clients receive the benefit of positive new developments while at the same time aiming to shield them from the many ‘financially fashionable' trends that, we believe, can sometimes destroy as much wealth as they create. We will set out the various factors we believe will prove important as we develop your Financial Plan and how, once established, we will work with you to ensure that this plan remains current and relevant to your circumstances. We believe the factors of most importance are:
Once we have mutual understanding and agreement on these factors, we will construct a financial plan, incorporating our recommended investment solutions, designed to help you meet those objectives.
In developing your Financial Plan we break the Financial Planning Process down in to three main phases:
- The initial phase
- The implementation phase
- The review phase
