Building your wealth

Whether you have just entered the workforce, or have been working for many years, your wealth creation strategy should be a priority. Strategies that consider short, medium and long-term financial goals help make that home deposit, new car or dream overseas holiday a reality. Integral can help you maximise your earnings potential through budget planning, investment strategies and tax saving opportunities to ensure your working years are optimised.

Protecting your wealth

Have you thought about what impact being unable to work would have on your family? Without the ability to earn an income and save, would you be able to pay your daily living expenses, medical expenses, keep your home and fund your retirement? While most people consider personal insurance in the event of death, less think about the effect that serious illness, trauma or permanent injury would have on their family. Wealth protection and personal insurance should form a vital part of your financial strategy and your Integral Adviser can help you navigate this.
