Late Financial Bloomers
Discover this growing group and the opportunities for proactive advisers
Our research1 in partnership with forecasting specialists Trajectory, identified five retirement journeys for future clients. These were segmented based on key aspects of clients lives now, such as health and income. One of the retirement journeys expected to grow significantly in the next 15 years is Complex Families, Complex Finances representing future growth opportunities for advisers.
This segment accounts for a third of those over 60 and is up from a quarter compared to a decade ago. Their wealth and comfort is challenged by the financial implications of a complex family, demands on their finances such as divorce, caring for elderly relatives and second marriages.

Currently, ‘Complex Families, Complex Finances’ may not be the normal focus for financial advisers. Commonly it would be the segment we refer to as ‘Financially Mature and Stress Free’, people who hold savings or other sources of wealth which require financial advice.
However, based on our research it’s expected that the ‘Financially Mature and Stress Free’ segment will decrease over the next 15 years, whilst ‘Complex Families, Complex Finances’ are expected to increase. This means advisers will need to start adapting or increasing focus on this segment to remain competitive and relevant.
We’ve looked deeper into ‘Complex Families, Complex Finances’ and provided an in-depth insight into the challenges this segment face, along with providing ways advisers can adapt their advice and solutions for this group.
