Syfe’s recently launched Goals feature allows investors to create, track, and adjust their goals to achieve their small and large financial ambitions.
To get started all you have to do is open the Syfe app (download it here if you haven’t already), navigate to the goals page, and you’ll be presented with the option of choosing from four unique categories:
Financial Independence
Whether you want to retire at 35, 55 or not at all, building up additional wealth through investing is one of the key ways to achieve financial independence.
Retirement
Set yourself up for success in retirement and focus on building your nest egg so you can enjoy your post-work world on your own terms.
House Deposit
Whether you want to build a house deposit to buy your dream home or your first investment property, get closer to your property ambitions by setting goals around them.
Custom Goal
Long or short and ideally for those with a DIY mindset, design your own goal, based on your ambitions, lifestyle, and objectives over the short or long term.
How to Set a Goal with Syfe
Once you’ve selected the goal you’re looking to achieve, you’re just three steps away from creating a Syfe goal. All you have to do is:
- Choose a dollar amount you want to assign to your chosen goal.
- Define the time period you want to achieve your goal in.
- Decide how much you want to invest on a monthly basis + your initial investment amount.
At this stage, investors can also play around with advanced options, like factoring in the expected inflation rate and expected returns required to achieve their goal (in dollar terms), within the time frame specified.
Once you’ve chosen those selections, simply tap create goal in the Syfe app.
Now that your goal is set, you’ll be able to link or tag investments against your goal. (And don’t worry, you can always link and unlink investments once they’ve been tagged against your chosen goal.)
At this stage, you’ll be presented with two final options to link or tag your investments to your goals:
