Financial Planning

As a business owner, we believe you not only want to grow your business but you also want to grow your wealth and protect your assets. Financial planning is central to the wealth creation process and our strategic alliance with a financial planning group means we can service your needs.

Financial planning involves formulating a strategy tailored specifically to your financial needs and takes into account your current financial resources, age, lifestyle, investment experience, risk profile and investment time horizon. It is a journey and in the early years when borrowings are high, spending must be carefully planned. In the accumulation years we see debt levels diminish and savings capacity increase. Finally, in the retirement years you reap the dividends from the careful planning in the previous phases.

The need for quality financial advice has never been greater. Evolving financial markets means more investment alternatives and greater complexity. You need an experienced financial planner that offers quality advice and service to secure and build your financial future. Our affiliated financial planning group offer you this service and they liaise with us on taxation matters to achieve the most tax effective solution for you.

Our commitment to your financial security goes well beyond the initial financial plan.

In consultation with you, they will regularly review the performance of your investments and make recommendations based on current trends, changes in laws and your personal circumstances. The frequency of the periodic reviews will be agreed with you depending on your particular needs.

Client Testimonials

“While we felt we had great educational products and services, we were struggling to effectively market these to increase sales and our business seemed to be ‘treading water’. McHenry Partners really helped us to focus on the key profitable services and clarified the target market to promote these services. We contracted the right sales people with incentives for them to perform well. As a result our sales have doubled in each of the last two years without increasing administration staff. Our quarterly consulting meetings with McHenry Partners involving discussing our recent financial performance but more importantly guides us on what actions we need to do to improve the business over the following three months. Our business has come a long way in a short period of time.”

I first met with Will from Vostro Private Wealth to consolidate our personnel insurance. Will was very helpful, understood our position & organised to oversee our policies. Shortly after I needed to make a claim and through Will and Kylie the process was made easy and our claim processed promptly.

Will is now providing financial planning for our Self Managed Super Fund. He has implemented a plan we are comfortable with and look forward to working with him in the future to assist our transition into retirement.

“Computers and accounting I have never been fond of. In the past I used Excel spreadsheets to keep track of income and expenses, word to prepare my invoices and MYOB to manage my payroll. McHenry Partners demonstrated the benefits of Xero and convinced me to transfer to Xero and the only regret is that I didn’t do this sooner. Now my accountant can log into the file and assist with any of my queries. My payroll and superannuation are also simplified with Xero. McHenry Partners have helped guide me with my personal investments and to get better finance arrangements.”

“McHenry Partners have been supporting our building and development business for many years and find them to provide a brilliant service. I’m one to focus on the building operation of the business and prefer not to be dealing with the financial management side of the business. McHenry Partners support us with bookkeeping, accounting and tax services for a fixed monthly fee which works really well. It allows me to focus on what I’m passionate about.”

“I was always busy in my business but my profitability was not a reflection of my time, effort and investment return.  After a business planning session with McHenry Partners, it was evident my systems were inefficient, our team members not productive enough and my time was being bogged down in less important areas of the business.

Over the last two years I committed to monthly consulting meetings with McHenry Partners. These meetings would identify the priorities of actions to work on my business to improve it. As a result, we have made significant improvements with better structures, systems and communication in our organisation and the team culture is now fantastic. I don’t have to worry about business cashflow anymore which gives me great peace of mind.

We now only have quarterly meetings instead of monthly, which keeps my General Manager and myself accountable to continue to improve the business. I would highly recommend McHenry Partners services.”
