Securing fair financial futures for all
6 Moments That Matter is a unique and proven six life-stage framework created by Jane Portas to help everyone to live a fair and secure financial life. It does this by identifying 12 Risks in Life - top financial risks and opportunities - that shape all of our Financial Life Journeys while the Moments That Matter prompt people to take control of their financial future.
6 Moments That Matter
6 Moments That Matter is a way of thinking about our money and our life that helps us to work out steps we can all take – whether we are an individual, a parent, an educator, an employer, a business or a policymaker - to secure our own, our loved ones’, and society’s financial future.
Based on many years of extensive and detailed Risks in Life research, applying risk management to people, 6 Moments That Matter are six life stages where our life circumstances, the life events we face, and the life decisions we make, shape our financial future.
"This event was the most interesting and relevant I've attended for some years."
12 Risks in Life
We all face Risks in Life throughout our lives that affect our financial wellbeing. How we experience Risks in Life varies depending on the education paths we take, the jobs we do, how we form relationships and families, and our healthy wellbeing in working life and in retirement.
In the diverse society we live in, Risks in Life are also affected by intersectional differences, for example to do with our gender and ethnicity, whether we live with disabilities as well as our cultural and lifestyle beliefs.
With risks come opportunities, and understanding the Risks in Life we face in 6 Moments That Matter, and how they affect our money, enables us to manage our financial wellbeing today and secure our financial future tomorrow.
Financial Life Journey
We all have our own unique Financial Life Journey with different combinations of Risks in Life and Moments That Matter. Some people experience similarities in their Financial Life Journey, for example women and other diverse groups.
Considering Financial Life Journeys for a particular group of people or a specific Risk in Life can identify changes to address financial gaps that affect many people’s financial futures.
6 Moments That Matter helps to focus our attention on the Risks in Life we face through our Financial Life Journey, prompting us to equip ourselves so that we can make informed and positive choices that reflect our life circumstances and aspirations for our own, our loved ones', our colleagues’, our customers’ and society’s financial future.
