How financial planning works

To help you prepare for your financial consultation, below are some steps you can expect once you connect with UMB.

  1. Your team of financial advisors will set time to introduce themselves and get to know you.
  2. An interview will provide an in-depth review of your current spending and saving habits to help establish your plan’s baseline.
  3. Your team will take stock of all of your current assets, debts and income to determine the variables that can influence your plan’s success.
  4. Once your foundational plan is documented, your advisor will help you identify concerns, passions, plans, issues and more—all of which will shape your financial journey.
  5. Short- and long-term goal mapping and execution are the final stages to creating a action-oriented plan.
