Financial managers

What decisions can they make?

Your financial manager will make decisions about your money and assets.

Your money includes any money you have saved.

A woman thinking and a car.

Some financial management orders let your manager make decisions about some of your money or assets.

A man pointing at himself, a home and a dollar sign.

When this happens, you get to make decisions about the rest of your money and assets.

A home, car, dollar sign and cross.

Your financial manager doesn’t own your:

  • money
  • assets.

But they can make decisions about how your money can be:

A person with cash.
  • saved
A person paying with their credit card.
  • spent.
A bag of groceries and a dollar sign.

For example, they can make decisions about how you can spend your money on food, services and bills.

When your financial manager makes a decision for you, they must ask what you think.
