Overview

The Budgeting – Adjust Your Cashflow strategy in AdviserLogic’s Digital Advice Builder helps you recommend that clients review and adjust their discretionary and essential spending to improve their cashflow. This strategy focuses on creating a realistic client budget to support financial goals or strengthen overall financial discipline.

⚠️Important

Support logins have read-only access to scenarios. Only Paraplanners and Advisers can create or edit scenarios.



Custom Strategy

The Budgeting - Adjust your Cashflow Investment Strategy is a Custom Strategy, a template with prefilled text relevant to the recommendation, rather than a strategy that calculates data.

Custom strategies are designed to reduce the time and effort required for drafting in the advisory process. By providing pre-filled text data relevant to the selected strategy, advisors do not need to start from scratch, saving valuable time.

To learn more about Strategy Types, please read the Strategy Cheat Sheet.
