The Cost of Poor Financial Wellbeing

A recent survey undertaken by Harvard Kennedy indicated that 41% of the workforce are worried about financial matters, substantially more than any other consideration such as Health (24%), Career (26%), Relationship (20%) etc. The study highlighted the detriment to mental health of such concerns and the financial impact that this had on employers in days lost to stress and impacted productivity.

Financial Worries

Out of those surveyed those worried about their finances:

​

They are 14.6x more likely to have sleepless nights

​

2.7 hours lost per week worrying about money

​

1 sick day per year because of financial stress

​

8.5x more likely to affect quality of work

​

12.4x more likely not to be able to finish daily tasks

​

The financial consequence of this was estimated at between 9 - 13% of payroll and have further impacts in areas such as staff retention.

​

Recent strides have been made tackling the wellness of employees in terms of health and we aim to assist in the area of financial wellness.

“Adam Shamil gave me exceptional educational advice about my finances and estate planning goal. His knowledgeable advice saved me a significant amount of money in tax and helped me organise my finances in a way where my money now works for me! He was very genuine with his advice and dealings with me and he really listened to all my concerns and he was able to tailor his advice for my specific needs. I have already highly recommended Adam to work colleagues and I will continue to work with him and use his services!.”

- Olivia Green

“Adam Shamil has worked hard to make me a personalised financial portfolio, that has consistently rewarded me through the storms of the financial market and pandemic. He has a diverse knowledge base across different asset classes including the stock market, property investment / mortgages and cryptocurrency. He has also helped me with financial planning and future proofing my investments, by displaying an in depth knowledge of pensions, inheritance tax and capital gains. I found it all confusing at first, until having a detailed conversation with Adam, who created a professional solution that no amount of internet searching or asking mates would have found! I have also used his services to secure insurance policies protect my family in case of critical illness, or not being able to work. He has sensitively helped me with my will and power of attorney as well, things we don't want to think about, but are important to plan for. I was skeptical about the concept of a financial advisor at first, but I have to say, it is a burden off my shoulders to not have to think about this, and know that my best interests are always prioritised. The decisions we make today have many repercussions in the future, and honest financial advice has made my money work harder for me, and looked after those I care about.”
