money but marriage may change the dynamics
Single women feeling financially confident (70%) than
single men (56%)
Invest earlier than men (25 years v 26 years for men)
despite joining the workforce at the same age (24 years)
Marriage – shifts the trend ~ mens financial confidence
increases, wife’s financial confidence decreases as they
get dependent on their husbands for their financial
decisions

Measuring financial intelligence
Do investors think about goal-based planning or
investments made without aligning them to goals
Is investment portfolio diversified or focused on 1
instrument
Do respondents think long-term with their
investments
Do they start investing early (avg age 26 years)
Do they take professional advice on financial
planning

advice and ensure a diversified portfolio

money in long run

plan
Goals important ~ no compromise on current

Focus on saving / better planning taxes – implies saving money - implies making money for clients
Our advice helps people save additional money – means greater resources at disposal to achieve their objectives or fulfill aspirations
The process of financial planning helps to fill this gap!! – additional value-add for clients

Traditionally the function of financial planning
was typically driven by the following factors:
CAs ~ seeking advice for tax-planning w.r.t.
investments and insurance for tax planning
Insurance distributors ~ for life and general
insurance needs
Post-office / brokers / mutual fund distributors
~ for investments needs
