Frequently asked questions
What is cashflow modelling?
Good question! Cashflow modelling is the process of assessing a client’s current and forecasted wealth, by using analytical and forecasting software. By inputting expected inflows and outflows, we are able to build a picture of your client’s finances throughout their lifetime and allow them to see the impact a decision taken today could have on their future goals.
Do I need to have my own licence?
The benefit of using Plus is you don’t need to pay for a licence to create cashflow modelling reports, as we do all this for you.
Should you wish to use the full features of the modelling system, such as interactivity or client collaboration, then you would need a licence.
How much do you charge for your cashflow modelling service?
Our Base Plan costs £250+vat per client. A full list of our charging structure can be found in our brochure.
How do I get a licence for the relevant software if I want to have the option to present live with my clients?
St. James’s Place offer a discounted version of the Voyant software, details of which can be found on the SJP Intranet.
If you prefer to use i4C, we can provide you with a contact number, along with a special introductory offer, giving you the first two months of the software for free.
Am I able to charge my clients for these reports?
Yes, you may be able to charge a fee to your clients, depending on your circumstances. Please refer to the SJP Intranet for more details on this.
How long does the process take?
It’s vital that we have all the required information to allow us to successfully build a cashflow model for your client, therefore our timescales will only start once we have confirmed all information is received. Please then allow 5 working days for this to be completed.
If a case is urgent, please let us know, as we may be able to re-prioritise our case list to accommodate your request.
What happens at the annual review?
Our team will get in contact one calendar month before the annual review date of the original plans. You can then decide whether you would like us to update any of the original scenarios, or whether you wish to have a new set of plans created.
Alternatively, if you have a review booked in with your client prior to this date and would like an updated Cashflow Model, just let us know and we can sort this for you.
Why should I use your cashflow modelling service?
Cashflow modelling can help you stand out from other Advisers and allow clients to see the impact your expert advice is having on their lives.
At Plus, we have invested in top-level software and cashflow modelling experts, so you don’t have to. Our experts will build your cashflow model and be on hand to help you with any questions and can even attend the client meeting with you if you’d prefer.
What Cashflow Modelling software do you use?
We currently have licences to build cashflow models on Voyant and i4C, both of which are approved by St. James’s Place for use with clients.
What if I need help to understand the illustrations?
This isn’t a problem. You will have access to the specialist who built your cashflow model and they will be able to answer any questions you may have.
In what format will I receive the cashflow scenarios?
There are two options available depending on whether you hold a licence. If you do, you will have access to any scenarios built, and will be able to present them live to your clients.
If you do not hold the appropriate licence, we will provide you with a printable version of the plans.
How do I request a cashflow model for my clients?
Just pick up the phone or drop us an email and we can talk you through the service. Our details can be found here.
Can I give you access to my clients?
Yes, access can be granted on an individual basis in a few easy clicks. We can go through this with you at any time.
What information do I need to provide?
We want to ensure you are providing the most accurate Cashflow Model to your client and this will be dependent on the information provided. The more information you can provide, the more in-depth and comprehensive the model will be.
As a minimum we would require:
- Income and Expenditure
- Debt and interest rates payable
- Pension and Investments
- Details of the scenario you wish to present
