Investing your hard-earned savings can be complex to manage and benefit from. Of course, there are the lucky ones who just seem to become wealthy. However, for the rest of us, it requires planning, dedication and time – the more time the better.

There are many issues to manage such as levels of risk, market timing, asset classes, and your own goals, objectives and preferences. Even getting started is difficult, but this is where we have the time and expertise to help you.

We can help you with:

Ordinary investments – direct shares and managed investments.
Superannuation – Wholesale managed funds and Self Managed Super Funds (SMSF).
Superannuation Pensions.
Defined Benefit Funds.
Remuneration Packaging.
Redundancy Packaging.

Even after initial investments are made, there are important issues to address such as monitoring, buy/sell decisions, tax considerations, and when to take a loss or profit. In addition, there is a huge amount of investment information and spruiking that can easily lead you in the wrong direction with unwanted consequences.

Having a proper investment plan is very important and the sooner you implement it the sooner you can grow your wealth. We can help you develop a financial plan and provide advice that will help overcome the issues raised above.

At Integrity Financial Advisory we will provide the support and expertise needed to help you implement personally tailored financial strategies for your business.
