Wealth Planning and Management
So that your wealth supports your goals

 

Comprehensive Planning
Career professionalsOur clients are keen to see their finances integrated within their life goals. To do this, they want us to completely understand their financial world before we provide them with a plan, coaching, and advice. To do this, Aikapa requires a comprehensive plan approach to ensure that you are aware of the priorities and understand them in terms of your financial situation. We work to make the process as easy and stress-free as possible.

To be able to build a comprehensive plan, we need to be exposed to your sensitive financial situation, which is completely confidential.  We liken our role to that of a doctor or lawyer and do not ever share or discuss your financial situation with anyone without your prior permission. Please see our privacy policy for more information.

A complimentary initial consultation is provided over the phone or at one of our quarterly seminars in the Bay Area. Call us and together we can determine if we are the right fit to help you grow your financial wealth.

The following 6-steps outline our planning process:

  1. Establish and define the relationship with you.

  2. Gather pertinent data.

  3. Analyze and evaluate your financial status.

  4. Develop and present our planning recommendations.

  5. Implement the financial planning recommendations. You can either implement the "financial roadmap" yourself or we can implement it for you.

  6. Coach and provide ongoing support for your financial plan. You can either control the ongoing management or we manage it for you.


Cash Flow Planning

Investment Planning
Investment planning is the process of examining your goals, determining your risk capacity and risk tolerance and establishing how your current assets and future savings can be invested to help you reach those goals. Investment planning considers your tolerance for risk, your time horizon, and your mix of taxable versus tax-deferred assets. (MORE ...)
Life Risk Management - Insurance Planning
Risk planning, also known as Insurance Planning, is the concept of using insurance to protect your assets in the case of a catastrophic loss. In planning for your insurance needs, you don't want too much insurance (over-insuring) or too little insurance (under-insuring). You want to make sure that the big risks to your financial well being, such as health, disability, damage to your home, are covered through insurance.
Retirement - Financial Independence Planning
Achieving financial independence is often a goal for our clients. This type of planning includes setting goals for your retirement date, projecting your living expenses and income, and then implementing and monitoring your investment plan. (MORE ...)
Tax Planning
Tax planning is the process of paying only the tax you are required to pay (tax avoidance). Tax planning also includes cash flow analysis, savings strategies, and the establishment of an emergency fund. Often for professionals this requires managing the timing of stock options, state tax payments, and itemized deductions. (MORE ...)
Estate Planning
Estate planning focuses on protecting and preserving your assets. Components of estate planning include instructions to take effect in the event of your unexpected incapacity or death, specific bequests to family, friends, or charity, and minimization of estate and income taxes. (MORE ...)
Philanthropy Planning
Philanthropy is a way for many of our clients to share their wealth and support their values. Components in philanthropy include donation of time, money and resourcers. We work with our clients to identify financially responsible ways in which they may want to contribute to their global community. (MORE ...)
