Slide 10:An Example Of Our Work Background
Mr. & Mrs Client aged 50ish
Married with teenage children
Mr. Client was in a job he didn’t enjoy anymore and wanted to start up a new business
Had being living off capital from off-shore trust
Home: £6M
Off-Shore Trust:£700K
Challenges
Budget
The clients believed that they needed £110,000 per annum to continue with their lifestyle.
Asset Rich & Cash Poor
The off-shore trust was being depleted quite quickly.
The clients were concerned how they might stop the depletion of the Trust.
What We Did
In order to confirm the clients’ lifestyle, we asked them to prepare a detailed analysis of their expenditure.
We created a Lifetime Cashflow Plan showing how long the funds might last. We then included scenarios for drawing equity from their home and downsizing their property. Once the clients had seen the facts presented by the Cashflow Scenarios then they were able to see clearly what they must do – Downsize their home.
Using a scientific investment management approach we ascertained the clients true risk profiles.
We gained the mandate to manage the Trust and we are also building a portfolio of £2 M on the Succession Platform to meet their future income needs from the equity produced from the downsizing of the property.
The Results
Mr. Client has been able to give up is job and start the new business he had always dreamt of.
The strategy allowed the client’s to continue with their existing standard of living.
The Off-Shore Trust can now be left to grow for the benefit of their children.
