Frontier Wealth Management Inc.

At Frontier Wealth Management we believe that every client's situation is unique and deserves individualized attention.

Too many personal finance writers and other experts refer to "rules of thumb" for financial advice. But why take a one-size-fits-all approach when you don't have to?

Our process starts with a thorough assessment of your current situation and what you would like to accomplish. We will present you with options and put our recommendations in writing.

We will also follow-up regularly because your life is a work in progress and your financial plan needs to adapt to life's changing circumstances.

So we invite you to take the journey from where you are to where you want to be. Frontier Wealth Management: pushing the boundaries of financial planning.

Financial Planning
This encompasses everything from retirement planning to paying off the mortgage to putting the kids through post-secondary education to leaving an estate. We use the Financial Planners Standards Council six step process and a variety of analytic tools including NaviPlan Select. We can focus on one or two elements of your financial affairs or complete a comprehensive financial plan that encompasses everything.

Retirement Planning
Most Canadians just want to know when they can retire and how much income could they have. We follow the FPSC six step process to help you determine answers to these questions and to help us provide you with appropriate product solutions. We look at everything from CPP, OAS, pensions, RRSPs etc. in formulating our plan.

Estate Planning and Insurance
How much life insurance do I really need? Is my group coverage enough? What’s the deal with mortgage insurance? We can help you unravel the mysteries of life, health, disability and critical illness insurance and provide advice on coverage to meet your family’s needs.

Investment Planning
Whether you want to build a nest egg or spend the one you have we can assist with helping you determine the appropriate risk-reward portfolio to meet your needs.
