These days 'WEALTH' encompasses not only domestic assets but international assets as well and as such it is important to understand where your exposure is. I believe that wealth management today must be a holistic endeavor that takes all the parts of the individual into account; personal, business and family.In order to be truly comprehensive, planning must consider current trends as well as changes in the rules and regulations we live by (CRA and IRS to name a few.) Choosing the best investment for you is not an easy thing, I believe there are no good or bad Investments, the critical question is whether it is appropriate or not and structure is the key. The same investment bought in a different structure (RRSP, TFSA, Trust, corporation, Canadian $, US $, joint account etc.) can have dramatically different results. Wealth Management is an individual process.
