A personalized approach to managing wealth
Managing wealth with an eye toward the future demands vigilance and skill in today’s global economy. Over the years, we’ve worked with clients and their other professional advisors – including legal advisors and accountants – to create comprehensive wealth management plans designed to make the best use of their wealth today and help ensure its endurance for future generations. And we’ll do the same for you.
We can offer you an array of personalized services, support and guidance that can help make a positive difference in the pursuit of your financial goals.
Services we offer
Education Planning
As your trusted partner, our knowledge and professional guidance can help you analyze the tax benefits, ownership structure, risk and contribution limits involved in education planning – even what to do with your leftover education funds if your aspiring academic earns a scholarship.
Estate Planning & Strategic Charitable Giving
One of life’s greatest rewards is sharing your wealth with others. Managing assets to take care of one’s own needs and wants is one thing, but it takes additional planning and knowledgeable guidance to help ensure your financial legacy makes an enduring difference in the lives of loved ones or a favourite charity.
Financial Planning
Whether planning to build a home by the lake or help your daughter launch a business, you need a well-conceived plan in order to succeed. Pursuing financial independence is no different. Whether you’re looking to grow your money over time, generate income in retirement or preserve wealth for future generations, confidence in your financial plan comes with knowing your assets are invested well.
Fixed Income Services
Your portfolio should work for you in propelling both your short- and long-term goals, and preserving the wealth you’ve worked diligently to grow. Fixed income investments are an essential component of a well-diversified financial plan and can support your aspirations with a reliable stream of income.
Investment Strategies
Our team of professionals unlocks a number of choices for your portfolio. We offer experienced guidance for selecting alternative investments, separately managed and unified managed accounts, managed discretionary accounts, wrap accounts, structured products and options, along with traditional offerings such as equities, fixed income, annuities, mutual funds and exchange-traded funds.
Longevity Planning
Many of today's retirees can expect to spend 30 years or more enjoying the fruits of their labour. That's why it's increasingly important not simply to plan for retirement, but to plan for longevity in retirement - all of the years it might last, all of the ways your life will change and all of the events you can't foresee.
Portfolio Management
As your trusted partner, we help you pursue your goals by constructing, managing and monitoring a broadly diversified portfolio that is fully customized to suit your needs. Through clear communication, we help you understand what you own and why, placing your best interests above all else.
Retirement Planning
We understand that there should be no compromise when it comes to your financial future. That’s why we work diligently to serve as the ultimate steward for your wealth, simplifying life’s complexities with a full spectrum of strategies for a tailored plan that we believe is the only one you’ll ever need.
Risk Management
One of the most important functions we serve is helping to protect all you have worked to build. Fortunately, there are a number of ways to help. It takes the right approach, as well as steadfast discipline and diligence, to assess the risks that could derail your life goals and build a contingency plan to help limit the effects. As your experienced guide, we assess where your risk lies and determine your level of comfort with it, exploring what actions and plans to put in place to provide the level of protection you need and deserve.
Structured Solutions and Alternative Investments
Having access to structured solutions and alternative investments means having tools to adapt to the ever-evolving investing environment. We believe diversification across a broad spectrum of asset classes is the best way to help our clients meet their long-term objectives, balancing risk and return.
