Evidence-based investing

We use the latest academic research to make sure our investment strategies have a less subjective, more systematic approach. This allows our investors to understand and stick with their plans, even in challenging market environments.

Simple fee structure

Our compensation comes from the construction, implementation, and management of your investment portfolio. We use primarily no-commission, low-cost index-based ETF’s and Mutual Funds and charge an annual advice fee that is withdrawn from your investment accounts.

Your annual fee is based on the complexity of your unique situation. We discuss and agree on it before we start working together.

When you work with us, your accounts are set up with Aligned Capital Partners Inc.

With large financial and family responsibilities, it's hard to know exactly what you should be doing with your money.

  • How much should you contribute to your RRSP, TFSA, mortgage, or other investment opportunities each year?
  • Is your estate planning optimized? Are your loved ones going to be looked after once you're gone?
  • Is your investment portfolio setup up for optimal growth and tax efficiency?

We understand. Sophisticated planning is time-consuming and complicated.

Let us take the wheel so you can focus on what you do best.

We are here to save you time, prompt you to act when needed, and provide peace of mind knowing that you’re being taken care of.
