What is financial planning?

You may have come out of a divorce with a settlement or a house, or you may have left with nothing. Look at what you do have and make it work for you. If you have come out with something substantial it is worth speaking to a financial advisor to see how you can best nurture it. You have to consider the future and look after what you have, ensuring that you don’t lose the lot! 

It could be that you have a small pension and are young enough to move the funds into riskier but larger paying investments as time is on your side. A financial advisor will explain all the possible scenarios.

An expert will lay everything out on the table. They will look at what you earn, any assets, your age, earning potential and any pensions. They will offer professional guidance and together you will come up with a financial plan. Read the rest of this article.

Whatever the circumstances in which you have found yourself teetering on the edge of uncoupling, the same things apply; you need to have a plan. There are many strands to a partnership and you need to find the best way to untie the knot.
