Join us online for a virtual presentation on Estate Planning: From One Generation to the Next on Wednesday, November 22nd at 2:30pm.
The largest-ever transfer of wealth is expected to occur over the next decade, and it’s critical that plans are put in place to keep as much money within your family, and your legacy, and less money in the hands of the CRA or IRS. This presentation covers a wide variety of estate planning considerations, including some of the more unique and less obvious aspects that you can integrate into your financial plan and into the discussions with your wealth management team. Topics include assets in multiple jurisdictions, testamentary trusts, alter ego trusts, estate freezes, as well as probate, vacation homes, rental properties, U.S. estate tax, and even digital estate planning.
We will be joined by special guest speaker, Peter Bowen, Vice President of Tax and Retirement Research from Fidelity Investments. Peter has over 35 years’ experience in the field and will share strategies, tips and actual examples of how to structure your estate to efficiently transfer from one generation to the next.
This is a virtual event, there is no cap on attendees!

Few Canadians recognize the financial impact their investment decisions have on their long-term success. Many investment mistakes are the result of behavioral biases. Helping our clients become aware of their biases, and managing them, is

Presented by Kaitlyn Lawson of CI Advisor Consulting’s Practice Management group, this presentation is designed to help you better understand your money mindsets and provide strategies to train your brain to achieve optimal financial well-being.
Topics covered in the session include:
▪ The anatomy of a healthy money relationship
▪ Understanding the origins of certain money behaviours
▪ How to develop a healthy money mindset
Join us virtually on Thursday, September 28th as we go through strategies on how to identify potentially harmful money habits and how we can keep them in check to live a happier and less stressful life!
