easy · Certified Financial Planner Investment Planning

The Farley family has liquid reserves of $11,000 and total monthly fixed outflows of $11,000. They do not have a written Investment Policy Statement (IPS). A broker suggests they invest their cash in a commissionable buffered note.

Based on the financial planning process, what is the most appropriate next step for the planner?

  1. Advise the Farleys to wait 90 days to see if interest rates decline before acting.
  2. Collaborate with the Farleys to establish a written Investment Policy Statement (IPS).
  3. Refer the Farleys to a specialized derivatives trader to execute the note transaction.
  4. Immediately purchase the buffered note to capture current market yields.
