Comprehensive financial planning involves balancing risk management and growth considerations across different stages of life, with the goal of supporting informed decision-making over time.
This phase centers on savings behavior, risk awareness, and planning techniques designed to support capital preservation objectives while building a financial foundation.
The accumulation phase emphasizes disciplined investment approaches, diversification, and periodic review to support long-term growth objectives within acceptable risk parameters.
Distribution planning considers income needs, tax awareness, and sustainability of assets over time, with a focus on aligning withdrawals with broader financial goals.
