Mission

To offer a full range of wealth management services

Our goal is to provide you with simple and effective investment solutions. We believe in a disciplined work ethic and outstanding client service, and wealth management is the core of what we do.

We care about providing expert advisory services and building strong client relationships.

We promise you a single point of contact with access to our full range of wealth management expertise. You’re in good hands with our team of experts, who always have your best interests at heart.

Investment Philosophy

Our guiding principles:

Our investment philosophy is simple, effective and focused on your needs.
We design our portfolios around risk-free investments as opposed to benchmark returns.
We believe the best way to optimize a portfolio’s risk/return profile is through strategic asset allocation, not stock picking, not stock selection.

What sets us apart

Our goal is to protect and grow your money by limiting the risks associated with market fluctuations. That’s why we favour an asset allocation approach over stock picking.

We aim to outperform the risk-free rate and earn you a risk-adjusted return based on your investor profile (5-year GIC + %).*

*An investment objective is not a guarantee of performance.

Values

We share your values

Judgment
We take a careful and disciplined approach to diversifying your assets.

Honesty and integrity
Two core values that are as important in life as they are in investing. We also believe that when it comes to communication, transparency is key.

Simplicity
We believe you should understand what you’re investing in.

Care
To help you achieve your goals, we need to understand your needs. So talk to us. We’re listening.
