Welcome to Life-Based Wealth Planning
Our team focuses on a life-based approach to help build and secure your wealth. Our main objective is to define what's important to you and then build a plan that complements the way you want to live, rather than asking you to live according to a plan set to manage your money. When life events change, we review the plan and change direction as necessary.Dan performs our research, due diligence, and portfolio management, and Tricia and Spencer are adept at developing wealth plans for our clients. As needed, we integrate the vast resources of other TD specialists for expertise in retirement and end-of-life planning; private banking; trust services (including Wills and powers of attorney), estate planning; insurance to help protect your income and estate; business succession planning; and more.
We are one of Nanaimo's select providers of discretionary portfolio management services. We strive to build consistent, long-term relationships to manage your family's total net worth. Our team spends time to truly get to know you and your family dynamics, wealth structure, goals, risk tolerance, and many other considerations with our comprehensive, integrated total wealth planning.
Discretionary investing: This is a huge advantage for snowbirds, business owners pressed for time, or anyone who does not want to deal with daily investment decisions. When you entrust your wealth management to Dan, potential opportunities or risks can be addressed without waiting for your approval. A personalized Investment Policy Statement (IPS) based on your objectives, comfort, and financial situation sets the guidelines, asset allocation and diversification of your portfolio. You pay one transparent, asset-based cost (no commission per trade), which lets us focus on driving your portfolio's success without worrying about the cost of trades. This cost includes wealth planning, estate planning, insurance services, and more and may be tax-deductible upfront on non-registered accounts.
We would welcome the opportunity to discuss life-based wealth planning and how we can help you navigate your future investment and life goals.
