Do you know how much is your total wealth today? Is your current wealth and assets sustainable in the next 5 to 50 years? In other words, do you know your financial health?
Most of us seldom try to find out our current total wealth and check whether it is sustainable 50 years from now. Not that we are not interested but we procrastinated due to the tedious computations needed to get the answer. In a way, so long as we have money to spent today, most of us assume that we will be better off in the future. Is that true? Especially after retirement or lost of income? If you plan to retire early and travel to see the world, then all the more you should start planning for it now.
MyWealth Suite is an iOS app to answer the questions above. It allows you to monitor your own financial health. You can still get — and pay — your financial advisers to help you with your financial planning. But keep MyWealth Suite app as a financial health checker on your mobile device. Your wealth information is at your fingertips any time.

Simply provide the necessary data and leave it to MyWealth to do the rest of the work for you.
Assets Tracking
MyWealth works by summing up all asset values to give your current total wealth. Below are the assets that MyWealth tracks:
1. Accounts
Account is a generic asset type for tracking liquid assets such as cash or funds. It is used to record balances in bank accounts, savings, retirement funds, etc. Account can also record your salary and expenditure data to compute total savings year on year.
2. Investments
Investment asset type tracks all current values of investments in stocks, mutual funds, ETFs (exchange-traded funds), etc.
3. Insurance
Insurance asset type tracks all cash values of financial plans that are still in forced. It also take into considerations the annual premiums which is considered as expenditures.
4. Appreciative Assets
Appreciative asset type tracks all non-cash properties that appreciate in values over time, such as the house you are living in, property investments, antiques, etc.
5. Depreciative Assets
Depreciative asset type tracks non-cash properties that depreciate in values over time, such as owning a car, etc.
6. Liabilities
Liability is a negative asset type for tracking loans, credit card borrowings, or any debts owed to financial institutions or any other parties. Record all loan data and repayment schedules and MyWealth will offset the owed amount from your total wealth value.
Wealth Projection
Apart from computing current total wealth, MyWealth will also perform projections on the values of all assets into the future for financial health analysis.
MyWealth will project your total wealth by taking into account your income and asset values with interest rates, expected rate of returns on investments, appreciation rates, etc. You can check how your wealth will grow over the next 50 years.
MyWealth will also take into account any depreciative assets you owned, your liabilities and expenditures with interest rates, inflation rates, etc, to give a more realistic view on your financial health. See how your negative assets impact your financial health.
Analyse your own financial well-being with the projection tools provided and identify probable financial crisis. Take measures to improve those situations before they occur.
We will be introducing more analytic tools in subsequent updates.
