Single Sessions
The kickstart you need. Bite-sized access to qualified personal finance and investment experience.
An opportunity to access and tap in to the insight and experience of a qualified, experienced fiduciary CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ personal financial consultant with decades of experience in financial markets and expertise in wealth creation and protection for individuals and couples who is not going to attempt to sell you anything and whom you are paying for un-conflicted and completely objective fiduciary advice in the most cost-effective way possible. These sessions, which can be held in person or virtually***, can demystify personal finance and investment concepts, explain where you stand and make specific recommendations in simple language so that you can then go and confidently take the appropriate steps to improve your personal financial situation.
*** under normal conditions, this session can be held in-person at a location in Manhattan or virtually by a Zoom call if the Manhattan location is not convenient. Under the present conditions imposed as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak, only the virtual video-call option is being offered.
You can arrange for just one session as a kind of “jump-start” or, more commonly, a series of sessions over time, or simply arrange to come back for refresher session at any time, but particularly as and when you experience a significant life transitionary events or become stressed or confused by a particular personal finance situation that may develop. Another popular use of a Single Session is to have the advice of a current investment advisor independently evaluated on the spot, as well as those interested in a qualified third-party evaluation of their own self-created portfolios.
The frequency and regularity is up to you, thereby giving you complete control over the amount of information and advice you require and over the total amount of fees you pay for this advice.
After the session, you will receive a summary email containing recommendations and providing personal finance resources as well as a complimentary copy of our Custom Spending Plan/Cash Flow Tool, Important Tax Numbers Chart, Estate Readiness Checklist and Educational Appendix that explains important personal finance concepts and strategies. You also receive 2 weeks of unlimited email access to your designated CFP® professional after the session to deal with any questions that may arise from the session.
Single Session clients are also given access to the Anglia Advisors Professional Network of financial and legal professionals, who are specifically experienced and qualified in dealing with our target clientele in the implementation of our recommendations.
Anglia Advisors offers these unique personal finance advisory consultations in the form of Single Sessions of either two or three hours each for which you set the agenda and pay for on an as-needed basis. No up-front or ongoing membership fees are required, no pressure is exerted, you just pay as you go for high quality and no-hidden-agenda personal financial advice. The content of the sessions is up to you, let us know in advance what is on your mind, what keeps you awake, what guidance you require, what personal finance problems need solving, what professional connections you need to access, what accounts you may need to open or fund etc. etc. All aspects of personal finance are on the table for discussion.
Following a session, you will have optional access to our affordable, evidence-based, no minimum ongoing Portfolio Management services for all types and locations of accounts, making use of the professional, low-cost, highly-diversified strategies (including those using investments offered by DIMENSIONAL FUND ADVISORS - DFA) developed and managed under the terms of our Core Investment Policy Statement and your own Anglia Risk Score derived from our own proprietary analysis. An integrated High Yield Savings account for high-interest cash management and no-fee checking account comes as part of the portfolio management service.
You are also eligible for cost-effective, high quality estate planning services from the partnership of Anglia Advisors and Helios Integrated Planning. We are very excited to be able to offer this critical service to our clients.
As a general rule and depending on complexity, a two-hour Single Session can be arranged to focus on one or two topics. Two or three topics can typically be covered in a three-hour Single Session.
Single Sessions are also commonly supplemented afterwards by Per Hour engagements instead of an additional Single Session order tocomplete any tasks that maybe arose in the course of the session and that may require additional time, resources and research to address or were not addressed in the session due to time constraints.
