Portfolio Management: An investment philosophy you can trust

Portfolio Management consists of investing your assets in a way which seeks to grow your financial wealth over time to reach specific financial objectives. This can be accomplished within different time horizons and will need to take into account your cash flow needs as well as the tax impact of your decisions.

You have considerable financial wealth, and you want to be sure to keep what you have managed to accumulate.
You also expect your portfolio to provide a reasonable investment return.
A proper trade-off between these two objectives is reached by balancing a number of factors.

Our investment philosophy is to seek long-term capital appreciation while minimizing risk and volatility. Through the expertise and experience of our professional managers our asset management approach provides you with complete portfolio diversification by sector, asset class, country, geographic region, and management style — all the while respecting your risk tolerance. Regularly rebalancing your portfolio to ensure it stays aligned with your personalized investment policy statement contributes further comfort that your strategy remains optimal over time. Our portfolio management services include:

Comprehensive, integrated offering
Combining management styles: value, growth, other
Diversification through a variety of asset classes, sectors, and regions
Ongoing monitoring and adjustments
Individual holdings, private pools and ETF, etc

Estate Planning Another great component of a solid financial plan is estate planning. You have worked hard to build up substantial assets and you want to protect them, and ensure that they are distributed to your heirs according to your wishes. An estate plan will give you the comfort of knowing that your wishes will be respected, and that your estate will be handled in an optimal fashion from a financial and tax perspective.

Taxation of Investments and Philanthropy Capital gains and investment income are taxed differently depending on the investment product you use. With good planning, you can ensure you choose investment vehicles that reflect your tax situation so that you can grow your wealth more efficiently. We can refer you to professionals you can trust to establish solid tax strategies.

Protecting what's important to you: Risk Planning it is crucial to evaluate your financial security and that of your family to avoid setbacks in the event of death, illness or disability. In general, life insurance needs are tied to a household's financial security which varies based on your dependents' degree of financial autonomy, your overall income-generating assets, and the family lifestyle to be maintained. Other needs may also arise such as disability, critical illness and long-term care insurance. Nearing retirement, insurance usually becomes a question of financial strategy. Because insurance needs evolve with different life stages, to ensure you have the right coverage, we will refer you to experts who will help define your needs.

Types of Insurance

Life insurance (personal or business)
Disability insurance
Critical illness insurance
Long-term care insurance

Investment Philosophy

Having officially started my wealth advisory career in 2000, I have had the benefit of experiencing both bull and bear markets and have learned greatly from those periods in time. The market is always teaching us new lessons and my philosophy over the past years has become one based on reason and expectation. I invest for my clients based on their needs and I strive to educate and fulfill their wishes to the best of my ability.

I have high expectations as to client service and delivering the best possible experience for my clients. Questions are always promptly answered and I strive to have my clients understand current market conditions and reasons for increases or decreases in the markets. I truly believe that if one understands why things are happening, it makes investing a much clearer and fulfilling experience.

My passion for wealth management, retirement planning and at the end of the day ensuring that clients are able to reach their goals is of paramount importance to me. My team has a positive and professional mandate and we strive to continually educate ourselves in order to offer the best knowledge and services for our clients.
