An adviser’s insight

What is cashflow modelling?

It’s the unknown that makes planning for the future difficult. Your life is full of lots of choices that can impact your financial situation. So how can you look all the way ahead to your later life with any kind of certainty?

This is where cashflow modelling comes in. Essentially, it’s a tool used by advisers like me to get an idea of how your financial future could look. I put in lots of data about you and your financial circumstances, and that lets me predict what could happen, and compare different scenarios against each other.

It means we can do things like: see whether you can afford to gift your grandchildren money towards their education, gauge whether your finances will last you into retirement, or understand whether you need to make some changes to achieve your goals.

Let me know if you think cashflow modelling could help you.

Before becoming a Financial Planner I had various roles with financial companies and banks. I was then a Mortgage and Protection Adviser for the last 5 years.

Outside of work I have many interests. I enjoy art (although I am not an artist myself), theatre and cinema. I spend a lot of time meeting up with friends and my extended family. I enjoy swimming, pilates and travelling and my dream is to go back to Canada and visit Alaska.
