Common challenges for financial planners

Everyone agrees diagrams are valuable. Most teams just don't have the time to do them properly.

Family structures are complex and hard to explain

Multiple generations, trusts, companies, SMSFs. Clients struggle to see the 'Big Picture'. Diagrams make the difference.

Long-term planning requires living documents

Family structures evolve over time. Static diagrams go out of date. Need diagrams that grow with the family.

Succession planning requires scenario views

Showing current vs. future states is manual work. Estate planning needs multiple what-if scenarios. Generic tools don't support this workflow.

Professional presentation builds trust

Visual quality reflects planner quality. Inconsistent diagrams undermine confidence. Need firm-wide standards - a common visual language.

StructureGram removes the friction that stops teams from using diagrams consistently.

Built for wealth advisory workflows

StructureGram helps you visualize complex family wealth structures — and keep them current over time.

PNG high-resolution images for inclusion in report. Direct print or PDF export for presentation-ready diagrams (firm logo, headers and footers).

Planning compliance built in

StructureGram includes validation rules specific to financial planning:

  • Spouse relationship status - married, defacto, separated, widowed
  • Parent-child relationships maintain hierarchy - biological, adopted, legal guardian and foster
  • Family, age and date validations prevent impossible relationships
  • SMSF trustee rules enforced (co or individuals)
  • SMSF member limits enforced (only individuals, max 6 members)
  • SMSF active-passive status
  • Executor, trustee, attorney and guardianship roles tracked
  • Only valid entity types can be trustees
  • Beneficiary designations follow trust type constraints
  • Circular ownership relationships prevented
  • Circular control relationships prevented
  • Ownership interests cannot exceed 100%
  • Active, passive, dormant and dissolved status tracking
  • Third-party 'off-diagram' ownership interests accounted for
  • Discretionary trust roles like appointor and primary beneficiary

Result: Compliant succession plans with client-ready visuals.
