Give your financial plan direction with Cash Flow Modelling

Cash Flow Modelling

What is Cash Flow Modelling?

To put it briefly, Cash Flow Modelling is a financial planning method that predicts your future income and expenses to help you achieve your financial goals.

It’s not enough to merely wish for a comfortable retirement—you need a realistic plan for how much money you’ll need to make that wish a reality. Cash Flow Modelling is at the core of GSB Wealth’s financial planning process, serving as a crucial step in achieving your financial goals.

We start by thoroughly understanding your goals. Then, we use Cash Flow Modelling to map out the steps needed to achieve them. This approach utilises advanced technology to adapt to changes in real-time, helping us answer every “what if?” scenario you might encounter.

We believe that having a detailed and realistic cash flow model is essential because without a plan, a goal is just a wish. Regular reviews are critical to ensuring you stay on course, especially when unexpected events arise.

Advantages of Cash Flow Modelling

Cash Flow Modelling provides a clear, visual projection of your financial future, considering different scenarios and events. It helps you determine the best time to retire, adjust your work plans, and revise your savings and investment strategies.

At GSB Wealth, we focus on helping individuals, couples, and families achieve meaningful returns by prioritising what truly matters to you. Cash Flow Modelling supports your planning efforts to safeguard and achieve your most important goals.

This method provides clarity, confidence, and control over your finances and priorities by forecasting various possibilities and illustrating your financial journey.

While we can’t predict the future, we can prepare for life events—such as early retirement, having children, or selling your home—using Cash Flow Modelling to understand their potential financial impact. Additionally, this tool helps forecast the effects of unexpected situations like entering long-term care, supporting family members, or receiving an inheritance.

Preparing for Cash Flow Modelling

When we meet a new client, we have a thorough conversation to identify what is most important to them. Distinguishing between essential needs and nice-to-haves is crucial. We then chart your financial inflows and outflows over your lifetime to see if your goals are achievable, whether it’s making a major purchase, retiring at your preferred age, or setting aside funds for future needs.

With this information, we can allocate your resources most effectively to keep your plan on track. Our lifetime Cash Flow Modelling helps you to:

  • Define what matters most
  • Protect what matters most
  • Achieve what matters most
  • Gain financial clarity and control

Understanding Potential Risks

Cash Flow Modelling doesn’t predict the future perfectly, and some projections may be off. The returns shown in Cash Flow Modelling are linear, so it’s important to consider financial risks and potential regulatory changes.

To manage these risks, your financial planner will regularly review your cash flow model, taking into account any changes in your life and objectives. This review will also evaluate your progress under different scenarios, such as early retirement, purchasing a larger home, or increasing travel.
