Well designed and cost effective group benefit plans are an asset to any business.  We will tailor a plan that attracts, rewards, and retains quality employees. Whatever the size of your company, you can provide for them with benefits that meet their needs – and yours.  Through cost containment and worksite seminars that educate employees on how to effectively utilize their program, we help to create long term stability for all stakeholders.

Income Replacement Programs

You can’t predict the future. You can, however, be prepared for whatever the future brings. The right insurance products – such as life, disability, long-term care and critical illness insurance – can ensure that your operations, your employees, and your family is protected with income replacement in the event of illness, or disability.

Investment Planning

(Pension Plans & Group RRSP’s)

Remember what they say about the best-laid plans? Life can take unexpected turns, and an adaptable financial plan means you are able to go with the flow. Employers today want to make sure that the employee and employer contributions invested in their group RRSP or defined contribution pension plan are being invested in a manner that meets with the employees’ objective. Our on site, one-on-one consultation with employees addresses their individual retirement targets and ensures that their financial strategy is in line with their risk tolerance. We will help to create a strong financial plan for your employees that can be modified according to their current and future position.

Shareholder Agreement Strategies

(Key Person & Buy-Sell)

Every business has people that are integral in keeping things running smoothly.  Proper coverage helps cover income loss or replacement costs in the event that a key person suffers a critical illness. Owners need to protect themselves as well. A Buy-Sell Agreement can provide for suitable transfer of ownership to chosen successors in the case of death, career-ending illness or retirement.  By creating a complete business continuation plan, you ensure the continuation of your business, and ensure that your family receives full value for it.

Corporate Tax, Estate Planning & Generational Asset Transfer

Effective estate planning can help to reduce or eliminate estate taxes when assets transfer from one generation to the next.  You’ve worked hard for what you built, not only for your own benefit but for others as well.  Unfortunately, inadequate estate planning often results in a great deal of tax payable to the federal government.We can help to ensure a smooth transfer of wealth, with minimum taxes and delays, to maximize the benefit you leave to your loved ones or charities of your choice.
