How does wealth management work?

Wealth management is primarily about financial planning and offering better returns on investments. Since the principle of wealth management lies in the long-term preservation of funds, this is how wealth management works:

  • The first step is for your wealth manager to understand your financial goals, time horizon, and risk appetite.
  • The second step is to come up with a suitable plan for you. This involves suggesting the right strategies, products, and investments for you. The wealth manager also takes into consideration your liquidity concerns, tax liabilities, and current as well as past investments.
  • The third step is to execute the plan. The money is invested in the financial instruments of your choice and your investment strategy is implemented
  • The last step requires evaluating and modifying your plan from time to time, as per your changing needs.
