2. Knowledge: Financial advisors and planners have deep knowledge about complex products and can read the nitty-gritty of various instruments. They also have good contacts with intermediaries who can tailor-make schemes for you.

3. Save time: Once you hire a financial advisor, you don’t have to manage your portfolio. This saves you a lot of time, effort and energy. It takes off a huge task off your plate. You have to just meet your financial advisor at regular intervals and see whether you are on right track or not.
