An English description is being prepared. Japanese description:

相談者の、生活設計、貯蓄計画、投資、保険など、総合的な資産設計(ファイナンシャル・プランニング)を企画立案し、その実行を支援する。
 資産設計では、顧客のライフスタイルや価値観を踏まえながら、家族・年齢構成や収入・支出の内容、資産、負債、保険など、基礎となるデータを聞き取りによって集める。希望や目標を聞き、現状を分析した上で、必要に応じて弁護士、税理士や保険・不動産などの専門家の協力を得て、総合的な資産設計について、顧客に最適なプランを作成し、提示する。
 資産設計をする際、顧客のデータだけではなく、最新の経済・金融情報、税制や不動産に関する情報を収集・調査することが欠かせない。そのため、インターネットを利用して情報を収集したり、相談・助言やプラン作成にはパソコンスキルが不可欠となっている。
 ファイナンシャル・プランナーは職業名であり、資格がなくてもファイナンシャル・プランニングの仕事はできるが、顧客の相談に応じるためには年金、税制、相続、各種保険、金融商品、住宅ローン等関連の幅広い専門知識が必要となる。
