Case study background — George and Rebecca
Brown
You work for the financial planning company,
Markson and Co, which is a licensed securities dealer and a registered life insurance
broker.
Your company specialises in investment and
insurance advice but does not provide stockbroking, real estate evaluations and
advice, income tax preparation, superannuation fund accounting, superannuation
fund administration or the preparation of legal documents such as Wills or
trusts.
George Brown is a senior engineer with an
international mining company. He has been working for the same company for the
last seven years and has been pleased that the company was primarily unaffected
by the global financial crisis (GFC). He believes there is potential for
further improvement in his salary as well as growth prospects within the
company.
Rebecca Brown is working part-time as a paralegal
with the same company she worked for prior to having their children, Ruby and
Sienna. She has a good relationship with the owners of the firm and does not
see any change in her current employment situation for the time being.
Both George and Rebecca are in good health and are
non-smokers. They have private health cover for the family.
George and Rebecca have approached you for
financial advice.
They advise you that they are confused in regard
to their financial situation. This has come about due to conflicting
information they have read, which states that although they will be living
longer, nearly half of all 40 year olds will die over the next forty years.
Further, their children have asked questions about the insurance plan advertisements
they have seen on television which has raised concerns as to whether they have
adequate insurance cover. Further, they want to make sure their children will
be adequately provided for if something were to happen to them.
They also believe they should have surplus income
as a back-up. They would like to save any surplus in the most tax effective
vehicle for the long term. Both George and Rebecca are concerned that if they
have access to these funds they may spend them.
George and Rebecca would like to reduce their
mortgage and believe that this could help them to get ahead before they have to
pay large school fees. Their current loan has a redraw facility. However; they
enjoy their annual holidays and have an active social life, and want to make
sure they have income available to continue these activities.
George also advised you that his uncle recently
passed away and he has inherited $75,000 cash along with shares valued at
$27,000. They have never considered owning shares before but George is keen to
understand the share market and perhaps buy some shares. George is prepared to
take some risks in order to accumulate wealth quickly. However, Rebecca is more
concerned about risk and does not wish to ‘gamble’ any of their funds.
Detailed below are George and Rebecca’s current
details.
