The Desjardins Securities Elite Program: Transparent and comprehensive

The Desjardins Securities Elite Program involves a fee-based brokerage account where wealth managers commissions are replaced by a flat fee based on the value of your assets. Regardless of the type of account you choose, you’ll be able to:

• Optimize the discussions you have with your wealth manager about your investments
• Better manage the cost of your investment wealth manager’s services
• Get fee-related tax benefits
• Benefit from not paying certain management fees

And you’ll no longer have to worry about paying commissions on each trade.

In addition to these advantages, you’ll also have substantial privileges^{Footnote 2}:

• You can pay lower fees if you and a spouse or family member combine your assets^{Footnote 2}.
• As your assets grow, you might pay a lower rate on certain investment products.

According to your investor profile, you can pick one of three Elite Program options: Elite Basic, Elite Intermediate and Elite FLEXible. Your wealth manager can help you choose the option that’s right for you. Each option comes with a specific number of commission-free trades.
