Intergenerational Wealth Management

Intergenerational Wealth Management is the process of preserving, managing, and passing down personal and business assets to future generations. It involves creating a plan that not only focuses on building wealth but also ensures the smooth transfer of assets for the benefit of your family. It sometimes also called succession planning.

We have experience in helping business owners create intergenerational wealth management plans that align with their financial goals and values. 

The early stages will start with a discussion and then are likely to progress to a Statement of Advice. This Statement of Advice will provide a written starting point that allows you to capture your thoughts at the time. Then, its normal to start working with your wider team including your accountant. 

From there we are able to refine and work towards a finance statement of financial advice that fulfills the needs of you, your spouse, your children and sometimes multiple generations. Our advice normally covers formal financial investment advice including management of kiwisaver. But it may also make recommendations to engage with the appropriate professional  individuals where we believe that tax planning, risk management, Kiwisaver advice, estate planning maybe required. 

The core purpose of intergenerational Wealth Management is to ensure that your wealth endures for generations through tax efficiency,  protecting assets from risks, and maximizing its growth potential. We work with you to develop a solid plan that addresses your unique needs and ensures the long-term financial well-being of your family business.
