Robots, results, and reality

Robo-advisors sell funds and portfolios that have been created to address the needs of many people with similar goals. There is no personalization other than the fact you get to choose which investments you buy based on a small selection of investor profiles. Moreover, there is no way to know if what you are buying works well with all the other moving parts of your plan¹.

These are questions that are asked and answered when you work with a professional consultant. In fact, studies show that Canadians who work with an advisor and pay fees still see returns that are 3.9 times higher than people who manage their own money see over a 15-year period1.

Achieve your goals with investment solutions and comprehensive advice.
