Building the best financial plan is no trivial matter. In order to do it properly, and in a way that鈥檚 absolutely in the best interest of our clients, a set of financial planning assumptions are necessary to make. What kind of assumptions you might ask?
Things like the future rate of inflation, when your kids are likely to head to post-secondary school, what the right amount of critical illness insurance is and many more. These assumptions are made based on rigorous research by our in-house financial experts and engineers.
