PREFACE
No professional curriculum is considered complete with out work experience.
Every individual who is doing management studies has to go this phase of practical study before
he/she considers himself/herself fully qualified as potential managers.
I got an opportunity to do report with IDBI Federal. I undertake the report to study of Financial
Planning.
People affiliated with management studies have a different view on this aspect and management
that “class studies have nothing to do with practical work”. But during my research I realized that
the project report a crucial part as it prepares a BBA for the impending responsibility that awaits
him/her in future. It integrates the theoretical aspect with the practical life and help in
understanding the business solution in better way.

REVIEW
OF
LITERATURE
REVIEW OF LITERATURE
The rapid growth of capital markets in India has opened up new investment avenues for investors.
Keeping this in mind the Financial Institutions provide number of services to its customer with a wide
spectrum of investment opportunities. In order to retain their customers they provide them with special
services besides traditional services.
The invention of new technology and services by financial institutions has given the consumers a wide
range of investment avenues to invest in. One of the special services brought out by them is
“FINANCIAL PLANNING SERVICES” which aims at identifying a person’s financial goals,
evaluating existing resource and designing the financial strategies that help the person to achieve those
goals and enables him to earn maximum returns at minimum level of risk.
The stock markets have become attractive investment options for the common man. But the need is to be
able to effectively and efficiently manage investments in order to keep maximum returns with minimum
risk.
Financial Planning helps you to give direction and meaning to your client’s financial decisions. It allows
him to understand how each financial decision affects other areas of finance. For example, buying a
particular investment product may help your client to pay of his mortgage faster or may delay his
retirement significantly. By viewing each financial decision as a part of a whole, you may help your
client consider the long term and the short term effects on his life goals. You will help them feel more
secure and more adaptable to life changes, once they can measure that they are moving closer to the
realization of their goals.
In near future a proper financial planning is required to invest money in all type of financial product
because there is good potential in market to invest.
The main objective of this project on FINANCIAL PLANNING is to review the real meaning of
Financial Planning, its objectives, role, framework, responsibilities of Financial planner and the study of
various other issues related to Investment planning, Tax planning, Asset allocation and Retirement
planning.
I am inclined to this topic, as it has given me actual knowledge of this service along with its working
and how the financial planner plans and manages the portfolio. Moreover, it has guided me to
understand this so called complex world of investment and financial planning and also increase my
knowledge to such extent. I hope it will prove beneficial to me in developing my further career.
This project was undertaken to know what exactly is the Financial Planning, How it is carried
out ,Who carries it out, Why it is carried out, When it is carried out ,and the most important What is the
benefit of carrying it out. Below my question were answered.
Basically Financial Planning is the process of meeting life goals through the proper management of your
finances. There is a need for financial planning because the financial situation in the country has
changed in the last few years, this has changed in such a manner that it will be difficult for one to
maintain a decent standard of living with the current means this requires financial planning and in
addition there are also several individual specific factor that has to be fulfilled. Financial planning
provides direction and meaning to one’s financial decisions. The process involves gathering relevant
financial information, setting life goals, examining customer current financial status and then coming up
with a plan for customer on how he can meet with his goals.
The process that is followed by the IDBI Federal is the planner first discuss the general
recommendations with the client informally, this allows the clients to indicate their preferences and
opinions on the options that have been designed. Once the planner and the client agree on the
recommendations, a concise written proposal is prepared along these lines:
An overview of the clients short and long term goals.
The client’s current financial strengths and weaknesses and implications of financial plan.
The client’s financial objectives anchored to current resources.

A detailed summation of all recommendations.
The financial plan for mutually selected recommendations.
A comprehensive economic overview of the client’s financial plan, supported by financial
statements.
A step-by-step implementation and monitoring plan.
Definition:-
Financial Planning is the process of identifying a person’s financial goals, evaluating existing
resources and designing the financial strategies that help the person to achieve those goals.
Process of Financial Planning:-

Financial planning is a highly personalized service. It is not a product. It is a cyclical service that
constantly repeats as client needs change over time. Preparation and implementation of the financial
plan is a long-term relationship and not a one-off exercise.
For the success of the financial planning exercise, it is essential that the prospective client should have
complete confidence in the financial planner’s capabilities. Confidence is built when the planner can
demonstrate adequate knowledge, technical depth and complete dependability. Also remember that
financial planning is a two-way interaction between the client and the planner. It is not and should not be
treated as a one-way prescription which is to be given by the planner to the client. Both the planner and
the client have certain responsibilities to make the exercise a success.
The Planning Process:-
The preparation of the financial plan is a multi-dimensional process. It requires the planner to collect as
much information as possible about the current resources, assets and liabilities of the client. The planner
needs to analyze the collected information from a number of different aspects to develop an optimal
financial plan. To prepare and implement a comprehensive and effective financial plan, the Financial
Planning Standards Board recommends the following 6-step process:-
Let us look at the above steps in more detail.

1. Establish the Client-Planner Relationship
Before approaching a client, it is important for the financial planner to clearly understand his
own role. The role of the financial planner is not to suggest get-rich-quick schemes. Rather, it is
to evaluate and study the clients' needs, gather and analyze data and prepare a financial plan
for now and for the future. Preparation and implementation of the financial plan is a long-term
relationship and not a one-off exercise.
A financial planner has to prepare a plan that helps his clients:-

 Organize their finances
 Improve their cash flows
 Lower their personal income taxes
 Plan for their retirement
 Improve their investment performance
 Lower their investment risk
 Insure themselves appropriately and reduce insurance costs
 Minimize their estate settlement costs
To achieve this, the planner needs to answer the following questions:

 What is the most immediate concern of the client?
 What is the client’s current financial situation?
 What are the client’s immediate and long-term needs?
 What is the gap between the client’s needs and the current financial situation?
 What services can you apply to the client’s needs?
 How would the client benefit from your service portfolio?
 What is the estimated time frame to complete the plan and accomplish goals?
 Is your role likely to be of an adviser, motivator, teacher, or director?

Client agreements and confidentiality clauses
When a client utilizes the services of a financial planner, he/she shares financial and other personal
information with the planner that is normally not shared with anyone else. The client-planner relationship
presupposes a very high level of trust between the two parties. Consequently, the planner is under obligation
to maintain utmost confidentiality of this information. To prevent unnecessary litigation and disputes in the
future, it is recommended that the financial planner should enter into a client agreement which formalizes
the relationship with the client and establishes the basis on which the service would be provided. Such an
agreement is also referred to as the 'Letter of Engagement.'
2. Gather client’s data and determine goals and expectations

The next step involves researching and collecting information that will help the financial planner
design and implement a successful financial plan. There are two aspects to this exercise:-
(a) Understanding the client's current financial position.
(b) Getting to know the client's financial goals, objectives and requirements.
The first helps the financial planner understand where the client is at the moment and the second
helps, the financial planner understands where the client wishes to go.
Formulation of Goals
Financial goals are the milestones that the client hopes to reach with the help of his financial
resources.
These milestones could be concerning different aspects of life like:-
Saving for marriage / childbirth
Buying a new car / house / electronic equipment
Creating a corpus for retirement
Creating a corpus for children's education
Adequately insuring self and family
Creating cash reserves for emergency usage etc.
The financial planner should ensure that the goals are:
 Specific;
 Realistic;
Measurable / Quantifiable in money terms; and
To be achieved within a specific time period

Once the client has stated clear, quantifiable goals for financial planning, the next step is to rank those goals
in order of importance. This is necessary because most clients do not have the resources to fulfil all their
goals. The financial planner must make it clear to the client that less important goals must be sacrificed or
postponed to achieve the more important ones. This done, the financial planner needs to work out the
amount of money available for achieving these goals. To achieve most financial goals, the client would need
to start saving and investing appropriately. Therefore it is important for the financial planner to know where
the money to invest will be coming from.
3. Analyze client’s objectives, needs and current financial situation Preparation of the Client's Personal
Financial Statements Preparation of the Cash flow Statement and the Budget Prioritizing Goals The next
step is to prioritize the financial goals of the client and work out the amounts that are required to be invested
towards achieving these goals.
Evaluate Qualitative Factors

Qualitative factors have a significant bearing on the financial plan for a client. The client's
tolerance towards risk, investment preferences, current health status etc. need to be kept in mind while
evaluating alternative Strategies.
4. Develop appropriate strategies and present the financial plan

A financial planner needs to develop appropriate strategies for the client in the following areas:
 Cash flow management
 Insurance planning
 Investment planning
 Retirement planning
 Income tax planning
 Estate planning
Cash Flow Management
Cash flow management is the means for funding client’s goals in other planning areas, therefore;
generally it is the starting point of the planning process. Once the cash flow management plan is in place,
the inflows have to be channelled in one of the three areas - expenses, reserves for emergencies and capital
accumulation.
Once your clients have planned to maximize income and minimize spending, they need the planner's help to
plan for their insurance, investment, education, income tax, retirement, and their estate.
The Benefits of Financial Planning

Financial Planning helps you give direction and meaning to your client’s financial decisions. It allows him to
understand how each financial decision affects other areas of finance. For example, buying a particular
investment product may help your client to pay off his mortgage faster or may delay his retirement
significantly. By viewing each financial decision as a part of a whole, you may help your client consider the
long term and the short term effects on his life goals. You will help them feel more secure.
Assessing your current wealth
Net worth: - Your assets are the things that you own. You probably own assets that have many
different forms, including cash, investments, personal property, real estate etc.
Definition:-
Your net worth is the difference between the totals of your assets and liabilities. In other words, if you
sold all your assets for the values stated and paid off all your debts, the amount left over would be
your net worth. The net worth of a person is a measure of a person’s financial position as of the date
of the personal balance sheet.
This relationship is shown below:

Items of Value - Amounts Owed = Net Worth
RESEARCH
METHODOLOGY
DEFINITION:
Research refers to „a search for knowledge‟. It can be defined as a scientific and systematic search
for pertinent information on a specific topic.
Research comprises defining and redefining problems, formulating hypothesis or suggested solutions;
collecting, organizing and evaluating data; making deduction and reaching conclusions; and at last
carefully testing the conclusions to determine whether they fit the formulating hypothesis – Clifford
Wood.
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
It is a way to systematically solve the research problem. It may be understood as science of studying
how research is done scientifically. In it we study the various steps that are generally adopted by the
researcher in studying his research problem along with the logic behind them. In general methodology is
an optional framework within which the facts are placed so that the meaning may be seen more clearly.
The sources of data shown that designing of a research plan calls for decision on the data sources are
research approaches (primary and secondary data) research instruments (observation survey experiment)
sampling plan and contact methods (personal interviews).
RESEARCH DESIGN
A research design is the determination and statement of the general research approach or strategy
adopted for the particular project. It is the heart of the planning. If the design adheres to the research
objectives, it will ensure that the client need will be served.
Research design is a plan structured and strategies of investigation. It is the arrangement of condition
and analysis of data in a manner to combine relevance to the research purpose with economy in
procedure.
 In order to achieve the objective it was necessary to talk to the customers and public to draws the
conclusions regarding the objective.
 For visiting the customers and publics to collect the relevant information; a questionnaire has to be
designed. The questionnaire was designed in such a manner to achieve the objective of the research.
 The sample size taken is 50 customers and publics.

TYPE OF RESEARCH
In this project Descriptive Research has been used.
Descriptive Research:
This is kind of research structure which is concerned with describing the characteristics of the problem.
In this way the main purpose of such a research design is to present a descriptive picture about the
marketing problem on the basis of actual facts. For this it is important to obtain the complete and actual
information about the subjects.
Research Objective:
The Financial Planning is vast in nature. It is intended to provide a bird’s-eye view of the client’s assets.
The Financial planner has to have bottomless knowledge of markets, funds etc.
Considering this fact, the scope of the study is defined to satisfy following objectives:
Understand the necessity of financial planning,

Financial planning for Individual:-
A personal financial assessment is designed to help you evaluate your current financial position and your ability to
achieve your objectives for the future.
Your ability to maintain your lifestyle objectives for the future is determined by your investment capital and

This report has been prepared to assist in the analysis of your current financial position and to help you identify
steps that you can take to achieve your personal financial goals and objectives. Although great care has been taken

SUGGESTIONS
To the Client:
The most vital problem spotted is of ignorance. Investors should be made aware of the benefits.
Investors should be made to realize that ignorance is no longer a bliss and what they are losing by
delay in planning.
Set measurable goals:

Set measurable goals that you want to achieve with a specific time. For example
What should be your lifestyle after retirement, or that to send children to good Schools
Start planning soon:

Delay in financial planning affects the whole big picture that he has in mind for himself and his
family. Developing good habits like saving, budgeting, investing and regularly reviewing
finances early in life, makes one better prepared to meet changes and handle emergencies.
Be realistic in terms of expectations:

Financial planning is a commonsensical approach to managing finances to reach life goals. It is a
lifelong process. There are certain extraneous factors like inflation, changes in macroeconomic
policies or interest rates that may affect financial results.
Understand the effect of each financial decision:

To realize that each financial decision that is taken affect several areas of his life.
To The Planner:
The planner should target for more and more young investors. Young investors as well as
persons at the height of their career would like to go for advisors due to lack of expertise and
time.
The planner should try to highlight some of the value added benefits, such as tax benefits,
systematic transfer plan, etc. Investors could also try to increase the spectrum of services
Offered.
The most important reason for not availing the serves of planner was spotted to be expensive.
The planner should try to charge a nominal fee at the beginning. But if no then they could go
for offering more services and benefits at the existing rate.
