Working together to help you achieve what truly matters to you

Office Location
I am a dedicated husband and father of two active teenagers. Our family is ingrained in our neighbourhood and community after fifteen years living in Etobicoke. When not at my desk, I spend time skiing, road cycling, swimming and being outdoors to gain fitness and energy. Growing up as a competitive swimmer allowed me to garner determination, discipline, diligence, and consistency as personal characteristics I retain today.
I apply the same characteristics to my business as a Senior Investment Advisor. Working to help people is a prominent and consistent aspect of my career. I believe a high emotional quotient, sensitivity and good communication skills are what makes me good at what I do. This same connective approach applies to the relationships I have with my TD clients. Building a relationship starts with getting to know one another and discovering what truly matters to someone. This process continues by building on financial goals and objectives, creating a written plan and presenting solutions. Active listening and asking clarifying questions along the way are what makes people feel listened to and understood.
I attended the University of British Columbia where I graduated with a degree in English and math. Subsequently a passion for investments, working with technical data and information engaged me to start working in the financial services industry.

More about Chris Galberg
I now have a long career investing in stocks, bonds, funds, alternatives, and derivatives. Financial markets and Investment returns are always in flux and although returns are always important to any investor, building an investment plan creates a clear picture of present and future and provides a roadmap along a timeline. I believe being a good investment advisor involves helping clients make good decisions whether in good times or bad, in addition to ensuring we prepare for and mitigate unforeseen curve balls in life.
TD's four-pillar approach to wealth management personalizes this analysis and strategy to address:
- Protecting what Matters
- Building Net Worth
- Implementing Tax Efficient Strategies
- Legacy Planning
During this process TD specialists who work in Insurance, Business Succession, and Wills & Estate Planning come together in supporting you in Retirement, Estate and Tax Planning discussions and solutions. Having spent my entire career at TD Wealth Private Investment Advice, my experience, history, and time are cemented in the financial advice industry. My skillset is best served with people who wish to connect and communicate when working through the TD Wealth process.
I consistently attend industry continuing education courses, workshops, and lectures as well as taking exams to elevate my designations. When working together I will always provide a reliable, disciplined, and well-balanced approach to realizing your financial dreams and aspirations. I look forward to partnering with you!
