Why is JAM Different?
If you’ve been Googling, asking friends and colleagues, or submitting random inquiries in your quest to find a financial advisor, you’ve likely encountered a lot of financial retirement planners or advisors focused on just high-net worth individuals and groups.

I'm not like that.

Though I absolutely provide services to those demographics I am also on a quest. A quest to work with clients ready to collaborate to build a fully customized plan for every unique chapter of your personal or professional life. Plans that consider the whole picture; individual or family needs, goals, risk tolerance, tax situations, estates + all the other stuff that is truly important to you. I want to be a part of creating your 'anything is possible' financial-future.

Nerdy Letters That Benefit Your Portfolio

The hard work was put forth to earn some notable and uncommon professional certifications* (yes, I have a few nerdy letters at the end of my name) that, when combined with my approach to investment strategy, directly benefit clients. To get specific:

  • DMS - Derivatives Market Specialist
  • CIM® - Chartered Investment Manager
  • PFP - Professional Financial Planner
  • Discretionary Investment Qualified
  • Licensed Life Insurance Advisor, TD Wealth Insurance Services

*Jeffrey Jakobsen is one of the few advisors who holds the Derivatives Market Specialist designation on Vancouver Island allowing him to use derivative strategies to help hedge against downside risk.
