Delivery
Financial Planning looks at your overall net worth and helps answer questions like "when can I retire?" and "do I have enough money to do the things I want to do during retirement?"
Investment Management reviews your portfolio of investments including your registered plans and non-registered plans. Together, your risk tolerances are identified and then a conservative portfolio, which you are comfortable with, is designed .
Tax Efficiency examines how your portfolios are designed and looks for opportunities to decrease the tax you pay.
Life Planning includes making sure you have the proper protection for you and your family in case of premature death, interrupted income or caring for your elderly parents.
Estate Planning enables you to design a future strategy for efficiently transferring your estate to the next generation.
