As South Africans prepare for Financial Planning Week from October 7 to 11, it is essential to recognise the importance of sound financial management.

This initiative coincides with World Financial Planning Day on October 9 and World Investor Week from October 7 to 13, aiming to raise awareness about the substantial benefits of professional financial planning.

In this interview, we explore the critical role that Financial Planning Week plays in empowering individuals to reassess their finances, establish clear financial goals, and seek professional guidance to secure long-term financial stability.

Thami Ngubeni spoke to Tracy Muller, Head of Advice and Philanthropy at Nedbank Private Wealth.
