Cashflow Modelling
Our most successful clients use Financial Planning to achieve their financial objectives and help them to accumulate wealth. A powerful tool used by Financial Planners is cashflow modelling.
By modelling your finances we can show you if you are on course to achieve your financial objectives. Many people who approach us want us to model their finances to show them when they will be able to retire or what they need to do in order to be able to retire early. People often approach us close to or at the point of retirement to help them determine how much income they can generate from their pension.
We’ll model your finances based on your current situation, give you a step plan of recommendations to help you to achieve your objectives, and show you how implementing these will influence your cashflow model. This can be a powerful tool in motivating you to take the actions which are required to achieve your financial goals.
Would you like to know what your future finances look like if you make a particular financial or life decision now? We can do a number of ‘what if’ scenarios based on the decision you are considering in order to show you how it will affect your finances. You could have a need for advice on a specific issue like whether to accept a job offer with a different remuneration package, if you should take a transfer value from a Defined Benefit pension or whether to waive or retain your pension lump sum when being made redundant.
We have recently used this process to advise on the following;
- a client aged 50 asked us to show her how long her pension will last if she takes early retirement at age 55
- a client who was about to retire asked us to show him how much he can draw from his pension and sustain it into old age
- a client who was being made redundant asked us to model his finances if he waives his right to take a tax free lump sum from his pension and if he retains his lump sum
Cashflow modelling can provide you with peace of mind. Whether you want to accumulate funds to trade up to a larger house, put your children through college or save for retirement, we can model your finances and show you if you are on course to achieve your objectives.
If you can determine that you are taking the correct actions now, to have financial security in later life, this can be very comforting for you and your family.
Our recent article in the Sunday Times illustrates the benefits of Financial Planning.

Highfield Financial Planning in the Media
The Sunday Times
In the sport of target pistol shooting there is a saying, “slow is smooth, smooth is fast”, which refers to the way to approach drawing and firing a pistol quickly and accurately. The learner shooter who focuses on practising the correct technique slowly, only building in speed later, will win the day nine times out of ten.
The Sunday Independent
A pension is a term that can seem distant to many, especially if you’re at the beginning of your career. But it is a vital part of long-term financial planning, designed to provide you with a source of income in your retirement years. As the pension landscape continues to evolve, understanding the fundamentals and staying informed about the changes is crucial. So, what do you need to know?
The Sunday Times
I have been sitting on about €140,000 in my current account for the past year. It’s what was left over when I sold a property. I keep reading about inflation and how banks are paying no interest and might start paying negative interest, and so on.
The Sunday Times
Would-be investors have a difficult decision to make when considering their options. If they are going to increase their wealth, they will need, at a minimum, to beat inflation and whatever they are paying in charges.

If you’re at the beginning of your working life or are simply new to pensions, we look at what you need to know
The Sunday Times
The phrase “Morton’s fork” can be traced back to the time of King Henry VII in the 15th century, when John Morton, then the Archbishop of Canterbury and lord chancellor, rationalised that a tax levied by the king was just.
Sunday Independent
Q I HAVE €150,000 which I want to invest for between 10 and 15 years — with a view to using it to fund my retirement in the future. I’m 50 years old. I am interested in property investment and had considered using the lump sum to buy a property outright.
The Sunday Times
If I asked 10 people on the street how long they thought pensions had existed, what do you think they would say? Since the 1960s, the formation of the state, or Victorian times?

No matter how far away you are from retirement, it is always a good time to start a pension or to build up your contributions. And the tax benefits are considerable, writes Siobhán Maguire

Our Process
Why We Changed Our Business To Focus On Financial Planning
Having been involved in Financial Services for over 29 years our experience is that most people feel that they aren’t well served by the traditional financial advice model. Commission based sales creates a huge conflict of interest as in order for a financial adviser to be paid for his work he must sell you a financial product.
Many people who approach us for financial planning services tell us that they feel that what they have been getting is sales, and they want advice.
Our most successful clients use Financial Planning to manage their finances and accumulate wealth. Studies have shown that people who engage in Financial Planning are more on track with their financial affairs and have higher net worths.
Who Is Financial Planning Suitable For?
- You own your own home or are planning to purchase a home soon
- You have surplus income (although you may well feel that it is not being used optimally)
- You may have financial products (pensions, life assurance, investments etc) but they were sold to you by someone who had a target to achieve
- You are interested in developing a cohesive plan to achieve your financial objectives
