What is Investment Planning?

Investment planning is a process of achieving your financial goals. Before you start any investment, you need to have a road map on where you want to go, what the gap is between where you are today and where you want to be, and how you are going to close the gap with your limited resources. We all know that resources such as money and time are scarce and limited. Only with proper planning and prioritization of limited resources, we can optimize our income to meet our financial goals.

Investment planning requires the following:

  • Establish your financial goals, such as retirement, buying a house, vacations, and etc.
  • Set priorities for each goal.
  • Identify the timeline for achieving these goals.
  • Be realistic, if your limited resources does not allow you to achieve all goals, you need to delay goals with lower priorities.
  • Find an investment instrument that can meet your investment horizon, risk profile, and objectives to implement your investment plan.
  • Review and reassess your plan regularly and fine tune your investment plan according to actual investment return.
