Managing Bank Accounts for a Better Financial Planning

Bank accounts are among the most common assets we possess. Starting at the age of 13 -15 years and continuing until retirement, we frequently open multiple bank accounts. Each move to a new city or country often necessitates the opening of another account, along with the challenge of managing them effectively.

You might have different bank accounts linked to various financial needs, such as insurance schemes, shareholdings, or savings. While you may remember the details of all your accounts now, it is not guaranteed that you will retain this information for life.

For example, in the event of memory loss, you could forget important details like account numbers, nominee names, beneficiaries etc. This oversight could result in your funds becoming unutilized or unclaimed. For example, insurance benefits intended to support you and your family in times of need might go unclaimed if you are unaware of the accounts that you hold.

To prevent such issues, consolidate all your bank account information in one place. This helps you track your finances and ensures your loved ones can access funds when needed.

Use a single platform to consolidate your financial information, eliminating the need for multiple tools. This ensures your data is always accessible, especially during emergencies.
