4) To keep tabs on your investments –

5) To re draft your Will –

6) Keep copies of all your financial documents in your Secure Online Financial File.

7) The Subscription and the Privacy Policy.

8) Security of Information. 

HOW?

1) You get a highly accurate analysis because the system lets You input, tweak and track income and expenses as well as assets and liabilities which will enable you to:

Recalibrate your thinking in terms of Income streams

ie what income do you work for and what income do you generate without doing a thing.

Expenses:   What does it cost to fund your current lifestyle? What would it cost your Estate to fund your family's lifestyle if you died or became disabled?     

Instead of the Retirement question –  Or  the death and disability questions for that matter:  

Re-Phrase these questions: "What would it take in income terms for me to be financially independent for as long as I live"  Keep in mind that because of medical advancement we know that our life spans are becoming longer.                                                                                                                                      

2) Click the BOND button on the Assets and Liability screen and (depending on your up to date financial profile)  you will be made an offer for your BOND business – by the SA Banks.


EXAMPLE
: 1% reduction on a bond of R1,000,000

Equates to R618 Per Month or R7,416 Per Annum.

Invest the monthly R618 back into the bond and it equates to R175,011 over 20 years.

Invest it in a low cost E.T.F. (Exchange Traded Funds) @  9% and your R618 becomes R373,965 over 20 years

 

3) Once a Year (at least) Issue your instruction to Shop for the best premium - just click the Re-Broke button on the short term screen and your accurate profile is automatically sent shopping on your behalf for the best value premium available.   

This ensures that you are consistently enjoying the best rate for your risk cover.   

Automatic Reminders: 1) Annual Review Date – 2) Vehicle License Renewal Date – 3) Drivers License Renewal Date – 4) Tracker Test Reminder Quarterly.

Automatic History: of all Additions and Deletions, Claims, Change of Insurance Company and all other Correspondence.  

Keep in mind that your Profile will keep changing according to: AGE - AREA - CAR TYPE - REPLACEMENT VALUES - USE - CLAIMS - and with some insurers CAR COLOUR and more.          

It is important that you update your profile with these changes because as your profile changes so does your risk rating, change, with Every insurer.

We have seen premium discrepancies of up to R900 per month - same profile - different Insurance Company.

Insurers have the right to focus on what they consider important!!!! ---- You have the right to Shop Intelligently !!!


EXAMPLE: consistently saving R200 PM = R48000 over 20 years in plain cost saving.

And in a low cost, E.T.F. @ 9% your R200 becomes R121,024 over the same 20 years. 

So now you know how Money Back Schemes work.       
 

4) Investments: It is to your advantage to visit our library “The Bookshop” to educate yourself about investing, irrespective of whether you consider yourself:

a) comfortable with the Market and do your own investing and annual portfolio re-balancing  – reduce your investment costs by between 1 and 3 %;

b) preferring to deal with your Financial Advisor  --    –   -- You can still reduce your costs --- by between 1 and 3% -   hint: negotiate with your Financial Advisor and pay him/her a fee outside of the investment.


EXAMPLE: Reduce the cost on a R1,000,000 single investment in a Collective Investment product, by 1% = R10,000 per annum - and if left invested over 20 years equates to close to R900,000 extra, in Your pocket.

A cost reduction of 1% on a R1,000 monthly investment over 20 years equates to over R100,000 extra, in Your pocket.

 

5) Last Will and Testament:
Should you wish to reconsider and update your Will, it's as easy as updating the requisition form and clicking the email button. Your life assurance schedule and your asset and liability register will automatically attach. 

This should be done at least once every two years to protect and allocate assets accurately, according to your wishes. 

The system defaults to Sentinel International Trust, for the drafting of your new Will, however you can change the destination to your Financial Advisor or a Trust company of your choice.

Complex Wills will result in a personal appointment to ensure accuracy of this Very important Document.

You may also want to set up an Ethical Will - see more on this in “The Bookshop”
