Insurance
Three major financial risks are premature death, inability to work because of a long-term accident or illness, and the need to find large amounts of cash to fund medical care.

Five out of ten men aged 25 are likely to become disabled due to an illness or accident that will prevent them from working for at least a month before they turn 65.

Seven out of ten women are likely to become disabled due to an illness or accident that will prevent them from working for at least a month before they turn 65.

There is a 33% chance that you will be sick or disabled for six months or longer prior to age 60.

  • transferring your UK pensions
  • reviewing your insurance programme
  • Kiwisaver 
We will send you the documents we need so that we can work with you to tidy up your current plan.  It is normal to come to the office for an investment meeting but many of our clients live in other cities and we can communicate and work effectively via the internet.
