Despite the availability of financial planning software and CRM tools, Excel spreadsheets are still incredibly popular amongst financial advisors to do everything from a “specialized” analysis of a particular client situation (e.g., evaluating internal rates of return when choosing between a pension or lump sum), to keeping track of certain task workflows or even important business metrics.
In this guest post, Derek Tharp – our Research Associate at Kitces.com, and a Ph.D. candidate in the financial planning program at Kansas State University – provides a few Excel productivity tips for financial advisors, including how to quickly do time-value-of money calculations using built-in formulas, discounted cash flow analyses for evaluating Social Security and pension strategies, as well as some practical keyboard shortcuts for navigating Excel more efficiently.
And so, whether you are relatively new to Excel and want to learn some things for the first time, use it regularly and might want to polish up on some shortcuts to gets things done more efficiently, or need a resource to pass along to associate planners and other individuals in your firm who may have less experience with Excel… I hope that you find this guest post from Derek to be helpful!
