One of the most effective ways to provide some or all of your required level of income in retirement may be via a regular retirement income stream such as an account-based pension or an annuity. Some retirees may also be eligible for an Age Pension or other benefits from the Australian Government. It's important to understand how all these options work, to determine the solution that is right for you.
When you meet with us, we'll discuss your objectives, your current situation and answer all of your questions. The financial advice process is all about helping you achieve your goals and feeling comfortable with the strategy and execution, so we make sure the advice we provide is always in your best interests.
We can guide you through the process each step of the way.
We, as Count Financial advisers, will spend time with you to review your current situation, understand your goals and attitudes to investing, and outline how you can make the most of your financial future. You can then decide if you want to proceed with more help.
We'll research your options and prepare a personal financial plan tailored to your specific needs, outlining clear strategies that aim to help you reach your goals. We'll answer any questions you have and explain the plan in detail.
Once you are completely comfortable and if you agree, we'll implement the best options on your behalf so you can be on the right track to financial security with peace of mind. It's that straight forward.
We'll keep in touch with you and arrange an annual catch up, so we can review your plan and make any adjustments to help keep you on the best path to achieving your goals.
