## Script for the Podcast: Unfolding a Wealth Management Consulting Action Step-by-Step **Introduction** * **Music:** Professional and engaging music with a welcoming tone. * **Voiceover:** "Hello everyone, welcome to this new episode of our series dedicated to wealth management! Today, we will explore a crucial topic for all wealth managers: how to unfold a consulting action step-by-step, using a practical case. You will discover the key steps to establishing a balance sheet, analyzing the situation, and guiding your clients towards appropriate solutions. Whether you are a professional or simply curious to learn more, this podcast will provide concrete answers. Sit back, relax, and let's begin!" **Segment 1: Establishing the Balance Sheet** * **Transition** Light music. * **Voiceover:** "The first step in a wealth management consulting action is to establish a precise balance sheet. But what is meant by 'situation'? We will divide it into three major aspects: personal, financial, and insurance." **1. Personal Situation:** * "This includes the family composition: is it a married or partnered couple, a blended family, or a single parent? What are the ages and professions of each individual?" * "We also examine the family and professional life cycle. For example, a family with young children will have different needs than a retired couple." * "Finally, we analyze their risk preferences and capability of managing their finances. Risk preferences are often measured by tests to determine risk appetite or aversion." **2. Financial Situation:** * "Here, we list all assets and liabilities. Assets can be financial (accounts, investments), real estate (residences, investments), movable property (valuable objects), or business related (shares in a company). Liabilities include all debts incurred." **3. Insurance Situation:** * "Finally, we evaluate the insurance coverage. This includes health care plans, life insurance, and disability insurance. These elements help identify the protections in case of disability, invalidity, or death." **Voiceover:** "This balance sheet is a comprehensive snapshot of the situation at a given point in time. It serves as a starting point for developing appropriate strategies." **Segment 2: Case study - The Soncas Family** * **Transition** Light music. * **Voiceover:** "To better understand this approach, let's take a look at the Soncas family. Their situation perfectly illustrates the challenges and steps of a consulting action." **1. Family Introduction** * "Elle Soncas, 46 years old, and Lui Soncas, 52 years old, are married under the community property regime. They have two children, aged 14 and 16." * "Both are salaried executives, with an annual income of €53,500 for Mr. Soncas and €38,400 for Mrs. Soncas." **2. Financial Situation:** * "Their assets include a primary residence valued at €320,000 with a remaining mortgage of €57,000. They also hold €80,000 in financial assets split between savings accounts and fixed-term deposits." **3. Insurance Situation:** * "Regarding insurance, their coverage includes mandatory schemes, but they also have private contracts to ensure additional income in case of disability or invalidity." **Voiceover:** "The wealth manager analyzes these details to create a complete diagnosis and tailor-made solutions." **Segment 3: Analysis and Recommendations** * **Transition** Light music. * **Voiceover:** "Once the balance sheet is finalized, the next step is to analyze the information and formulate appropriate recommendations." **1. Analysis of Assets and Liabilities:** * "Is the asset allocation sufficient? For example, the Soncas family's portfolio is mostly real estate. The advisor could recommend increasing the share of financial assets for better liquidity." * "Is the debt manageable? With a remaining debt balance of €57,000 and monthly payments of €750, the situation seems comfortable, but this depends on long-term objectives." **2. Financial Recommendations:** * "A rebalancing of investments could include long-term investments like a retirement savings plan, or structured financial products." * "To optimize their taxes, the advisor could suggest investments in tax-efficient vehicles such as life insurance or the PEA (Plan d'Épargne en Actions - Equity Savings Plan)." **3. Enhancing Insurance Protection:** * "The advisor could recommend adding long-term care insurance or improving the life insurance coverage to guarantee better protection for the children in case of unexpected events." **Segment 4: Implementation and Follow-up** * **Transition** Light music. * **Voiceover:** "Ultimately, implementation of the solutions and regular monitoring are crucial for the success of the strategy." **1. Implementation:** * "The advisor helps prioritize the actions, like refinancing loans or opening new savings accounts." * "They also coordinate with other professionals, such as notaries or accountants, to ensure all aspects are in order." **2. Regular Monitoring** * "Needs and objectives evolve over time. Annual monitoring allows adjustments to the strategy based on family changes or economic developments." **Voiceover:** "The role of a wealth manager is ongoing and they are a trusted partner for the long term." **Conclusion** * **Music:** Intro theme reprise. * **Voiceover:** "We have reached the end of this episode.
