Description: Two hands holding a map move into frame.

Narrator: And the earlier you start, the better off you’ll be later in life.

Description: The hands slide the map into a satchel bag.

Narrator: Canadians who work with an advisor for at least 15 years build up almost four times more wealth.

Description: Cut to a young woman holding satchel. Text “4 times more money*” appears above her. Reference appears below: “Advice Creates Strong Value for Canadians, Advisor Insights, May 2017.”

Narrator: That can help them better prepare for life’s unexpected bumps.

Description: The ground starts to shake. She keeps her balance.

Narrator: Backed by a team of experts…

Description: Camera pans up, four hands come together.

Narrator: our advisors will help you see the big picture, through four key building blocks:

Description: Each hand opens to place a block in the middle of the frame.

Narrator: cash flow, income protection, retirement and estate planning.

Description: Each block is labelled counter-clockwise: “Cash flow,” “Income protection,” “Retirement” and “Estate planning.”

Narrator: They’ll take the time to understand your unique needs

Description: A circle is drawn around the four blocks to create a compass.

Narrator: both now and for the future.

Description: The compass lands in the bottom corner of the map. One pin appears. A wavy path is drawn to a second pin.

Narrator: They’ll let you know what to bring to the first meeting.

Description: A tax return, pay stub and questionnaire appear, with checkmarks above.

Narrator: And you’ll get a better sense if the relationship will work.

Description: A coffee slides in to meet another.

Narrator: By sharing details about your short- and long-term financial goals,

Description: Camera pans back up to map. More pins are added along the path, between the start and end pins.

Narrator: an advisor will work with your budget to form a plan.

Description: The woman’s hand moves into frame, distributing money to each pin on the map.

Narrator: From early in your career when you may need money on hand,

Description: An advisor’s hand moves into frame and suggests moving more money to the beginning of the path.

Narrator: to when you’re ready to retire and secure your legacy.

Description: The advisor also gestures towards the end of the path. The woman moves more money there.

Narrator: Our advisors build long-term relationships with clients,

Description: The budget is confirmed. Both hands give each other a thumbs-up.

Narrator: they’ll check in with you regularly and track your progress,

Description: Return to map. Advisor adjusts one of the pins.

Narrator: And help you adjust for life’s surprises.

Description: Financial life events appear for each pin: a new car, loan, celebration, mortgage, travel, illness.

Narrator: Regardless of where you are in life,

Grow your money tax-free 

With a tax-free savings account (TFSA), you don’t pay tax on any money earned or withdrawn. You can contribute to a TFSA at any time, and your unused contribution room is carried forward each year. Use these savings for education, a down payment on a home or other large expenses. 

Save for retirement 

Registered retirement savings plans (RRSPs) are still one of the most popular ways to save for your retirement. Contributions are tax deductible and taxes are deferred until you withdraw your money.
