We create and review scope of work and send engagement documentation that outlines the specific pain points and areas you need addressed in your financial picture. The documentation will spell out needs, our responsibilities as well as yours, and the transparent compensation arrangement.
3) Data Collection
Before we develop a comprehensive plan, we have to understand where you and your family are financially. Here is an example of our data gathering checklist that will give you an idea what the type of information we will be asking for.
4) Review Process
We will review your summarized financial information and validate personal and family financial objectives. This is the point in the process where we will validate assumptions and generate scenarios specific to your expectations and goals.

6) Presentation of Plan
The entirety of our financial analysis, recommendations, and actionable plan is presented to you during the last video call. If you are not pleased with a certain piece of the plan, we e the ability to refine and redeliver.
7) Implementation of Plan
This process usually takes around 3 months and at the conclusion of this plan development, you will have the ability to ask questions in order to have clarity. At this point, it is up to you in deciding whether you want to implement this plan on yourself or choose to come on as a full client at Strongside Asset Management.
