Wealth Management: What are the aspects of wealth management?

Currently, many businesses practise some forms of wealth management through insurance and investment.

A comprehensive wealth management plan should generally include ways to maintain, grow and distribute assets which would involve the following:

• Debt / cashflow planning to enable efficient and optimum use of credit for the business


• Investment planning and management to maintain wealth and ensure adequate returns


• Insurance planning for business protection (e.g. fire, theft, marine or key-man insurance) and personal protection (death, disability, critical illnesses and household)


• Tax planning to minimise unnecessary cash outflows and ensure efficient cashflow management


• Retirement and welfare planning for employees to ensure retention of key staff for business continuity


• Retirement and succession planning to ensure that the business can continue to operate smoothly when the business owner leaves the business


• Estate planning to ensure efficient wealth transfer to successors / beneficiaries
