SERVING INVESTORS FOR MORE THAN 80 YEARS
As one of Canada's oldest investment firms, BMO Nesbitt Burns has been at the frontier of finance and international business for over 80 years, driven by a team of investment advisors with unparalleled depth and breadth of expertise. Our firm aspires to be recognized for the highest standards of excellence, integrity and professionalism. With the power of knowledge, teamwork, creativity and innovation, we will help create value and wealth for our clients.
MY PHILOSOPHY
My investment philosophy is conservative, based on capital preservation and moderate growth. Depending on the specific needs and objectives of each client, I determine which asset mix I need to incorporate. My expertise in fixed income instruments, combined with comprehensive knowledge of stock markets, mutual funds and structured products, helps me maximize the long-term growth of my clients' portfolios while minimizing risk.
MY PROFOUND COMMITMENT
I am committed to building a solid, lasting relationship with my clients. Keeping clients informed is a top priority for me. This means providing access to a wealth of educational materials, promptly returning phone calls, and quickly following up on administrative issues. It also involves monitoring accounts on an ongoing basis to take advantage of opportunities as they arise, and changing market conditions. I regularly review goals, strategy and portfolio performance with my clients.
"For as long as I can remember, veteran businessmen and investors- I among them- have been warning about the dangers of irrational stock speculation and hammering away at the theme that stock certificates are deeds of ownership and not betting slips. The professional investor has no choice but to sit by quietly while the mob has its day, until the enthusiasm or panic of the speculators and non-professionals has been spent. He is not impatient, nor is he even in a very great hurry, for he is an investor, not a gambler or a speculator. There are no safeguards that can protect the emotional investor from himself. "
