welcome to r j s & associates
At RJS Wealth Management, these two financial professionals are able to work together, so you can experience the dynamic combination of Financial Planners and Accountants working as one towards a common goal (your lifestyle potential).
A team of financial experts sharing their skills and experience can be far more valuable than an Accountant and/or a Financial Planner working independently. Why? For many reasons but often simply because of professional pride.
When finance professionals work together, 1+1 can really = 3 or even 5. They can bounce energy and ideas off each other, turning every stone to find what more is possible for you. Each professional has a different qualification, a different expertise and a different lens that could be used to help you.
When you have a Financial Planner and Accountant on your team, they don’t compete, they complement one another. Each will be upfront about what they are licenced and qualified to help you with and refer you on at the appropriate point. This is the way we work at RJS, both Financial Planners and Accountants (for personal and business matters) know each other’s skillsets so well that working collaboratively is easy.
Accountants may be qualified as CPA or CA but unless they have the Australian Financial Services Licence (AFSL), they cannot provide financial strategy advice.
They can advise on plenty of other business and personal related matters, like taxes (GST, CGT, Income, Sales and many more) and depreciation, and small business advice like business advisory, business structuring, business insurances, budgeting and reporting compliance2.
While the tax and reporting side is important to do well and get right, the area where a great deal of value will be added, is in business advisory. Business advisory specialists can advise you on the best practises for your industry, business and situation.
We can provide a complete picture of where your business is today and how to get it to the next level. R J Sanderson business advisory specialists assist businesses with cash flow management, growth planning and projections, risk management and succession planning.
With financial strategy advice that is tailored to individual financial circumstances.
Before they give any advice, they can ensure they find out as much as they can about you and your financial goals2. They can also (if appropriate and with permission) speak to your Accountant to get an idea of what your personal or business financial situation is, so they can take this into account when developing a plan for your financial future.
Your planner can also help you protect what’s most important to you. Perhaps through structuring your wealth and/or insurances such as life, critical illness, total and permanent disability and income protection.
RJS Wealth Management was built on the foundation of co-operation between financial professionals. Our success rests on seeing the value of sharing knowledge and skills.
