A Partner You Can Trust


John’s approach to wealth management is best captured by his business beliefs which are as follows:

  • Financial security doesn’t happen by accident
  • Financial markets are largely unpredictable so his client portfolios must be properly diversified
  • Client portfolios should always include income-generating investments because income is the backbone to successful long-term investing
  • Taxes matter. Clients should always arrange their finances to minimize payments to Canada Revenue Agency
  • The most important rule of successful investing is ‘don’t lose the capital’
  • Finally, John believes his #1 job is to help ensure his clients are successful with their investments
