Goals and investment context
Clarify objectives, planned commitments, available resources and the time horizon for each goal.
Give your investment decisions a clear purpose. Start with your goals, time horizon and capacity for risk, then build a framework for reviewing the choices ahead.

Clarify objectives, planned commitments, available resources and the time horizon for each goal.
Explore your comfort with uncertainty alongside your ability to absorb losses and meet near-term needs.
Review the purpose, concentration, costs and liquidity of existing holdings within the agreed scope.
Set out the questions, responsibilities and review points that should guide future investment decisions.
Final deliverables are confirmed in your agreed scope.
Discuss your goals, financial commitments and existing investment arrangements.
Agree the questions to address, relevant location, professional responsibilities and fees.
