When it comes to managing your wealth, it’s important to consider the value you are currently getting from your current advisor. If you feel that you currently paying too much to get too little, you are not alone. According to the 2023 EY Global Wealth Research Report, 45% of Canadians are looking to switch or add providers to help them manage their money more effectively.
It’s understandable why Canadians are reevaluating who handles their wealth: high fees for proprietary products, subpar diversification and performance, a lack of a holistic financial plan…. In our expert opinion, you have every right to expect more.
Benefits of switching financial advisors
Perhaps you have reached a new junction in your professional life. Or it’s time to wind down your activities and think about retirement. Or perhaps you’re not sure you have the right plan in place or simply need a second opinion to feel secure about how your wealth can provide a comfortable life, now and for a long time.
Sometimes a fresh start is all you need to gain clarity, pay less, and get way more in return, such as a comprehensive plan focused on what you can control, that guides you towards reaching your ultimate objectives while minimizing costs.
