“If you take control of your finances today, then you will not be a victim of them tomorrow.” - Emily G.
Stroud. This quote underscores the role of financial planning in navigating our lives. Financial planning is a
proactive approach to achieving financial security and your financial goals during economic fluctuations.
Financial planning is of utmost importance in today’s evolving and dynamic environment. This project aims
to shed light on the meaning, importance, and types of financial planning.
Financial Planning is a process of systematically managing your finances. It involves assessing income,
expenses, investments, and other elements to create a roadmap for effective wealth management.

Emergency preparedness
Peace of mind
In general usage, a financial plan is a comprehensive evaluation of an individual's current pay and future
financial state by using current known variables to predict future income, asset values and withdrawal plans.
[1]
This often includes a budget which organizes an individual's finances and sometimes includes a series of
steps or specific goals for spending and saving in the future. This plan allocates future income to various
types of expenses, such as rent or utilities, and also reserves some income for short-term and long-term
savings. A financial plan is sometimes referred to as an investment plan, but in personal finance, a financial
plan can focus on other specific areas such as risk management, estates, college, or retirement. In business,
"financial forecast" or "financial plan" can also refer to an projection across a time horizon, typically an
annual one, of income and expenses for a company, division, or department;[2] see Budget § Corporate
budget. More
specifically, a financial plan can also refer to the three primary financial statements (balance sheet, income
statement, and cash flow statement) created within a business plan. A financial plan can also be an estimation
of cash needs and a decision on how to raise the cash, such as through borrowing or issuing additional shares
in a company.[3]
Note that the financial plan may then contain prospective financial statements, which are similar, but
different, to those of a budget. Financial plans are the entire financial accounting overview of a company.
Complete financial plans contain all periods and transaction types. It's a combination of the financial
statements which independently only reflect a past, present, or future state of the company. Financial plans
6
are the collection of the historical, present, and future financial statements; for example, a (historical &
present) costly expense from an operational issue is normally presented prior to the issuance of the
prospective financial statements which propose a solution to said operational issue.
2.Introduction
Wealth Management
Wealth Management as a concept originated in year 1990's in the US. Essentially it is the investment
advisory covering financial planning that provides individuals with private banking/ asset management/
taxation advisory & portfolio management. Warren Buffett is the most successful investor in world. He says
that "The basic ideas of investing are to look at stocks as business, use the market's fluctuations to your
advantage, and seek a margin of safety. That's what Ben Graham taught us. A hundred years from now they
will still be the cornerstones of investing". He is even called as wealth creator. Wealth Management means:
Wealth management is a high-level profession
Financial Planning Everyone has needs and aspirations. Financial Planning is an approach to assess the
adequacy of income and assets of a person to meet the financial requirements for fulfilment of these needs
and aspirations.
The role of financial planning has been increasing in the market because:
Needs and aspirations of people are ever-increasing. This increases the financial challenge that people
face. Investors need to be counseled on the difference between needs (essentials) and wants (desires).
Prioritization of expenses is critical for people who are struggling to make both ends meet.
Joint families are giving way to nuclear families. The nuclear family stays in a separate house. The rentals
or the acquisition cost of a house, are an important financial need to plan.
In a nuclear family, the individual is responsible for his immediate family. The extended family, staying
under a different roof, cannot be expected to support the regular financial needs of the individual .
7
The period of caring for individuals is reducing, while the longevity (life span) of people is increasing.
This means that incomes earned over a shorter time period need to finance the needs over a longer period of
time. Hence the need for retirement planning.
Income levels are going up. Higher investible surplus needs to be invested prudently for the future. Hence
the need for professional financial planning advice.
The financial assets and liabilities that are available in the market for various needs are getting more and
more complex. It is difficult for a layman to have a comprehensive understanding of these financial products.
Tax provisions keep changing. People need to plan their taxes and ensure that they take full benefit of the
concessions available. This has opened the doors for professional tax advisers.
Increasing complexities in family structure can create problems while transfer wealth to the next
generation. Therefore, estate planning is important.
A professional financial planner helping individuals navigate these challenges is an important member of our
society. The role and influence of financial planners is bound to grow in India.
Types of financial plans :
1. Cash Flow Planning
Cash flow planning manages what comes in and goes out from your accounts. It is a regular process, usually
done monthly or annually. You can make informed financial decisions by keeping track of your cash flows.
It helps you avoid unnecessary expenses and work towards your goals with greater control.
Here is a quick breakdown of the elements of cash flow planning:
Inflows: Identify all sources of income such as salary or business/profession income, rental income,
income from investments, etc.
Outflows: Recognise all your fixed and variable expenses like groceries, rent, utility bills,
subscriptions, shopping, etc.
Emergency Fund: A percentage of your income should be contributed to this fund. It acts as a
cushion for any unforeseen events.
Surplus Or Deficit: Calculate the difference between total inflows and outflows. A surplus is an
extra cash that can be saved or invested wisely. A deficit calls for attention to spending and creating
more income sources.
2. Investment Planning
This involves strategically analysing and allocating your surplus money to diversified investment avenues.
The objective is to maximise your income levels and mitigate risks. It starts with defining your goals, risk
tolerance, and time horizon. Different types of investors based on their investment style are categorised as
follows:
Conservative Investors: They prefer low-risk and stable investments and focus on preserving
capital. Examples: Blue chip stocks, FDs, bonds, etc.
Moderate Investors: They like a balance between risk and reward and include a mix of options
promoting diversification. Examples: Corporate bonds, SDIs, stocks, REITs, etc.
Aggressive Investors: They are willing to take high risks for high returns and hold investments for a
long period. Examples: stocks, startup equity, high-yield bonds, etc.

3. Insurance Planning
It is more or less a safety net for your assets, health and life, protecting you from unexpected problems. This
includes insurance for health, life, accidents, vehicles, property, etc. The aim is to create a well-planned
strategy that safeguards you and your assets from unnecessary spending.
Tips For Insurance Planning
Carefully analyse your life situation to determine the types and amounts of insurance coverage you
need.
Understand the coverage, terms, and premiums associated with different policies.
Periodically review your insurance plans to ensure they align with your current situation.
Evaluate and compare several insurance providers to get the best deal.
Ensure you account for all the insurance-related expenses in your budget.
4. Retirement Planning
Retirement planning is like crafting a financial roadmap for your stress-free retirement life. This involves
assessing your current income, expenses, savings, and investments to build a substantial retirement fund. It is
also essential to consider factors like inflation, future lifestyle preferences, and unexpected expenses.
Tips For Retirement Planning
Start investing and saving as early as possible. Compounding helps your investments to grow
exponentially.
Clearly define your post-retirement lifestyle goals.
Go for investment diversification across the risk-reward spectrum.
Take advantage of Provident funds (Employee Provident Fund and Public Provident Fund) and the
National Pension Scheme (NPS).
Regularly review and adjust the plan.
9
Utilise available tax deduction sections like Section 80C (for LIC, Tuition Fees, PPF, ELSS, etc.) or
Section 80D (health insurance premiums).
Keep proper records of your income, expenses and tax-exempt investments.
Pay advance taxes to avoid any interest/penalty and a significant outflow.
6. Estate Planning
Estate planning is planning to manage and distribute your assets in your absence. It incorporates legal papers
like wills, trusts, and power of attorney for specific assets to avoid potential conflicts among heirs.
Tips For Estate Planning
Keep beneficiary designations up to date for life insurance, etc.
Ensure all your bank accounts, demat accounts, LICs, and other investments have nominee details.
Designate a trustworthy executor to manage the estate.
Document everything regarding wills, legal papers, etc.

5. Theoretical Background –.
Wealth management is a comprehensive approach to financial planning and investment management aimed
at optimizing the wealth of individuals and families. This literature review provides an overview of the key
concepts, theories, and best practices related to wealth management. The purpose is to present a
comprehensive understanding of the subject and inform the project report on wealth management. There is
some review on Wealth Management are taken from different books & authors are given below:-
BY BOOKS:-
Wealth Management and Financial Planning: Wealth management involves the integration of financial
planning and investment management to achieve the long-term financial goals of individuals. It encompasses
various aspects such as retirement planning, tax planning, estate planning, and risk management. The
literature in this area emphasizes the importance of aligning investment strategies with individual goals and
risk tolerance.
Portfolio Management and Asset Allocation: Asset allocation is a critical component of wealth management,
where investments are allocated across different asset classes to achieve diversification and risk
management. The literature highlights the role of modern portfolio theory in asset allocation and the use of
techniques such as mean-variance optimization and risk-adjusted returns in portfolio construction.
Investment Strategies and Financial Markets: The literature on investment strategies in wealth management
covers a range of approaches, including active versus passive management, value investing, growth
13
investing, and factor-based investing. It explores the impact of market efficiency, , behavioral biases and
macroeconomic factors on investment decision making.
Risk Management and Wealth Preservation: Effective risk management is crucial in wealth management to
protect capital and preserve wealth. The literature discusses various risk management strategies, including
diversification, hedging, and the use of alternative investments. It also examines the role of insurance, estate
planning, and asset protection in mitigating risks.
Behavioral Finance and Investor Psychology: Understanding investor behavior and psychology is essential
for wealth managers. The literature on behavioral finance explores cognitive biases, emotional decision-
making, and herd behavior that influence investment choices. It provides insights into the application of
behavioral finance principles in wealth management, such as goal based investing and investor education.
Financial Planning in India:- Mutual Fund distributors and others involved in selling or distributing mutual
funds need to pass the prescribed examination before they can start selling mutual fund schemes. However,
no such requirements have been set for financial planners and wealth advisers. Securities & Exchange Board
of India (SEBI) has come out with a concept paper on the proposed regulatory structure for investment
advisers. The highlights are as follows: There is an inherent conflict of interest between a distributor
earning a commission as agent of a product manufacturer (such as a mutual fund) and performing the role of
financial adviser claiming to protect the investor's interests. The proposed model to tackle this conflict of
interest is as follows: The person who interfaces with the customer should declare upfront whether he is a
financial advisor or an agent of the companies. Advisers should be governed They should be subject to
Investment Advisors Regulations. Advisors should acquire higher level of qualifications. They may act as
advisor to investor for multiple financial products.
Financial planning seeks to ensure adequacy of assets and cash flows for meeting the financial goals of the
Investor. In the case of a wealth management Investor, adequacy of assets is not an issue. The Investor will
have the assets, though cash flow (liquidity) can be an issue if not suitably invested. A wealth manager seeks
to understand what the Investor wants with the wealth viz. grow the wealth with an openness to take risk; or
consolidate the wealth with a conservative approach to risk; or preserve the wealth while avoiding risk to the
extent possible. Different asset allocation mix would be appropriate for each of these profiles. Wealth
Management deals with creation, accumulation, preservation and of wealth.
India's wealthy are relatively young compared with their international counterparts and, hence, take a
different approach to wealth management. The demographic difference presents an opportunity to create new
products to address the needs of a young population and leverage new technologies, such as social- and
14
mobile-enabling investing applications as a key differentiator. India's wealth management services sector is
largely fragmented, which isn't surprising given the industry is still in its early days. Hence, it is
recommended that firms take a long-term view while evaluating potential return on investment. Given the
market and a demographic and regulatory environment that is significantly different from elsewhere in the
world, we recommend wealth managers consider the following to succeed in the Indian market: Build your
brand and focus on overcoming the trust barrier. Invest in advisor technology to improve advisor
productivity and retention. Evaluate a partnership-based model, coupled with innovative use of technology,
to increase reach. Focus on transparency and compliance, while targeting customers with attractive, segment
focused products.
Though wealth management is a new concept for India, some companies are started working in this
direction. Here is list of some companies:

Investment Avenues -
Investment Avenues are different ways that you can invest your money. Following investment avenues that
are considered in this report are as follows
16
Some important Investments Avenues are explained below
: 1. Mutual Funds:-
A mutual fund is an investment vehicle that is made up of a pool of funds collected from many investors for
the purpose of investing in securities such as stocks, bonds, money market instruments and similar assets.
Mutual funds are operated by money managers, who invest the fund's capital and attempt to produce capital
gains and income for the fund's investors. A mutual fund's portfolio is structured and maintained to match the
investment objectives stated in its prospectus.
17
2. Life Insurance Life:- Insurance is a protection against the loss of income that would result if the insured
passed away. The named beneficiary receives the proceeds and is thereby safeguarded from the financial
impact of the death of the insured. The goal of life insurance is to provide a measure of financial security for
your family after you die. So, before purchasing a life insurance policy, you should consider your financial
situation and the standard of living you want to maintain for your dependents or survivors.
3. Debentures & Bonds:- A debenture is a type of debt instrument that is not secured by physical assets or
collateral. Debentures are backed only by the general creditworthiness and reputation of the issuer. Both
corporations and governments frequently issue this type of bond to secure capital. Like other types of bonds,
debentures are documented in an indenture. There are 2 types of debentures: Convertible and nonconvertible.
A bond is a debt investment in which an investor loans money to an entity (typically corporate or
governmental) which borrows the funds for a defined period of time at a variable or fixed interest rate.
Bonds are used by companies, municipalities, states and sovereign governments to raise money and finance
a variety of projects and activities.
4. Equity Market:- Equity market one of the most vital areas of a market economy because it gives
companies access to capital and investors a slice of ownership in a company with the potential to realize
gains based on its future performance. The securities traded in the equity market can be either public stocks,
which are those listed on the stock exchange, or privately traded stocks.
5. Commodity Market:- A physical or virtual marketplace for buying, selling and trading raw or primary
products. For investors' purposes there are currently about 50 major commodity markets worldwide that
facilitate investment trade in nearly 100 primary commodities. Commodities are split into two types: hard
and soft commodities. Hard commodities are typically natural resources that must be mined or extracted
(gold, rubber, oil, etc.), whereas soft commodities are agricultural products or livestock (corn, wheat, coffee,
sugar, soybeans, etc.)
6. FOREX Market:- FOREX is the market in which currencies are traded. The FOREX market is the largest,
most liquid market in the world, with average traded values that can be trillions of dollars per day. It includes
all of the currencies in the world. There is no central marketplace for currency exchange: trade is conducted
over the counter. FOREX transactions take place on either a spot or a forward basis.

CHAPTER 8: FINDINGS AND OBSERVATIONS
Observations:
There are some points which I observed and they are below:-
Some of them young and unmarried people don't have proper financial planning.
On other hand married and having young & older children prefer for financial planning
and do consult with financial planner to manage their asset mix.
We can categorize people into 4 segments i.e. young and married, married with no
children; married and having young children; married and having older children and
retirement.
Mostly people prefers goal-based financial planning as they invest in various asset mixes.
Most of the people are interested to invest in mutual fund, and some investors prefer
systematic approach based investment. But on other hand we can say that most of the
respondent doesn't know the benefits of systematic approach.
By the data we identify that most of the people prefer medium term duration for the
investment.
Respondent who are young either unmarried & married are not aware how to balance
uncertainty with various asset mix.
Tactical asset allocation is preferred by that respondent who invests in risky market where
as fixed asset allocation is preferred by most of the respondent as their risk is neutral.
By the data we notice that long term horizon is mostly prefers by fixed asset allocation
respondent and even they have proper financial planning.
According to data we understand that 72% people are aware about wealth management, but
rest of them are not aware about the wealth management. By this most of the people are not
read anything about wealth management and not have any idea about wealth management
34
Some respondent believe that wealth management is systematic management of all the
income or investment.
