Research, Select and Implement Solutions 

You are as succesful as the plans you have made.

Great! You’ve mapped out your road map of action items and developed your repeatable processes and wealth system. Now it’s time to research the solutions or products you need as part of your plan and then select and implement the best solutions for your needs and goals. 

As part of these solutions, you may want to seek help from a professional like a Personal CFO or a team of multiple professionals (CPAs, financial planners, portfolio managers, insurance advisors, etc.). These professionals are as much a part of your solution as your chosen investments or insurance products. 

When selecting your solutions, consider factors like:

  • Consistent returns 
  • Diversified asset types 
  • Reduced correlation to stock markets 
  • Tax efficient distributions 
  • Liquidity 
  • Risks 

Building a team of professionals (like Financial Planners, Portfolio Managers, Insurance Advisors and Wealth Tax Advisors) will significantly increase your chances of success in this step. 

Or you can work with a Personal CFO who has the experience and training of multiple professionals and more. 

Sometimes the only way to access certain wealth strategies and opportunities is through a qualified advisor. We know that many Canadians don’t have access to certain types of investments or insurance solutions, so we developed a way to provide access for our clients.
