But this is not all that we’re about. We’re about you: Your goals for tomorrow; facing the fears you have today and, a bright future for those you love.

How do we do that? Knowledge. Trust. Commitment.

We have a combined 45 years of experience working with clients with diverse needs and goals. We’ve endured market cycles, investment trends and fads, and created solutions for virtually every type of client. In addition to the professional knowledge that Sam Di Cesare and Jessica Gardner acquired through obtaining their Certified Financial Planner designations, and through Jessica's completion of the options and derivatives courses, we draw on the expertise and resources of TD Bank Group.

We forge deep bonds with clients by communicating regularly and ensuring they understand their goals and every facet their plan. Our relationship with our clients is built on a foundation of solid advice and a concrete understanding of how they want to shape their financial future; and we will travel that road with you, every step of the way. We can understand you better, anticipate problems, and create solutions that are right for you because we support our clients for the long term.

Capital Preservation

We want to help build your wealth. That’s why we are committed to a long-term strategy that works with your timeline – without unnecessary risks to your investment strategy. Our clients are all different. "Jane" is saving for that second home in the tropics. "Gus" hopes to travel the world in retirement. "Kate" wants to give back to the charities that matter to her. Their goals may vary, but our commitment to each doesn’t. We focus on achieving their long-term goals focusing on consistent, long-term returns that match their tolerance for risk.

Our Clients

Quite simply, they are part of the extended family. They are not just high-net-worth individuals. Our clients are Canadians who are looking to take control of their financial future. Our relationship with our clients is why we’re in this business. There is nothing we like more than telling "Jane", "Gus" or "Kate" that they can buy that second home, take that cruise or make that donation. We work as hard as we do for your happiness because, after all, it’s what makes us happy.
