Your Retirement
Planning Journey

- They’re also licenced to provide general advice.
- A financial planner will assess your information and undertake comprehensive modelling to determine whether you’re on track for retirement, for a fee of $295.^
- Next, you’ll meet with your planner to discuss in more detail how you picture your retirement. You’ll clarify your goals, your current financial situation and potential strategies that could help you achieve a better retirement.
- Then it’s your call whether you continue the comprehensive personal retirement advice journey. If you decide to continue, you’ll build a plan to guide you from where you are to where you want to be, with fees for services provided, payable as you go.
^ If you proceed to receive full comprehensive financial advice, which will include a tailored comprehensive Statement of Advice, additional fees will be payable. Depending on your needs, these fees will generally range between $1,500 and $4,000.
Our planners will walk you through the financial planning process, but it’s worth thinking about the following before you first make contact:
- What’s your current financial situation? What income, expenses and debts do you have? Do you have any insurance?
- What are your financial goals? What are you seeking to achieve? What are your priorities?
If you’re not ready right now, you only pay the initial fee of $295 to cover the costs of the modelling and analysis. This will show you how you’re tracking to your ideal retirement. This fee may be deducted from your super.
