Financial Planning Seminars

Employers both large and small are showing an increasing interest in promoting the financial wellbeing of their employees, and it’s not difficult to see why. Payroll and staff-related expenses form a major part of any organisation’s budget, so it’s important to ensure that guidance is given to the users of that expenditure, the staff themselves.

In the past, many employers considered that their responsibilities to be at an end with the payment of salaries or wages to the staff. ‘It’s up to them how they choose to spend it’ is the traditional view, and of course in many respects that’s perfectly true.

But matters of personal finance, just as much as personal health, education and professional development, are essential to any individual’s wellbeing, and if financial matters are handled unwisely, the benefits of a generous remuneration package can easily be lost and so the resources allocated by the employer are effectively wasted.

GT Independent Financial Advisers have been running Retirement and Midlife Financial Planning seminars, often as part of broader-based midlife and retirement seminars, for employers of all types for many years. Attendees receive the benefits of many years of experience in personal financial planning as well as the opportunity to receive a full review of their financial arrangements free of charge.

From the employer’s point of view, this means that, at very little cost, you can demonstrate that you care about your employees’ financial wellbeing and are keen to help them to maximise the benefits of the remuneration they receive from you.   This type of gesture has been shown to improve morale and loyalty and reap dividends for the employer in the form of staff retention and greater productivity. Contact us to receive further details about forthcoming seminars.
