Integrated Wealth Management Service
OUR FULL SERVICE PROGRAM CAN BE TAILORED FOR EVEN THE MOST COMPLEX BUSINESS, FAMILY, AND INVESTMENT SITUATIONS, INCLUDING ALL ELEMENTS OF FINANCIAL, TAX, ESTATE, INSURANCE, AND WEALTH MANAGEMENT.
COMPREHENSIVE FINANCIAL PLANNING
​
Financial goals are as many and varied as there are individuals. Most of us want to build wealth for retirement and secure our and our family’s financial future. We might also want to leave a substantial legacy for our children. Whatever the goal, we can make it happen with a personalized financial plan.
​
Our five-step process is designed to maximize the value of all your financial resources to achieve your objectives: 1) Establish concrete goals instead of a hazy wish list is the important first step. 2) Assess your resources to give us a complete picture of your current situation. 3) Analyze all components of your financial life to find strengths to exploit and weaknesses to repair. 4) Present a detailed plan to grow and manage your wealth, provide for an estate, and protect your wealth while enjoying the lifestyle you want. 5) Take action to implement the plan, including professional portfolio construction and management, ongoing communication and reporting, and adjustments when necessary.
BUILDING WEALTH
Once we understand your needs, the next step is to implement your plan with a managed portfolio. Our network of full-time professional discretionary investment managers use objective, time-tested strategies to build cost-effective, tax-efficient portfolios to match your risk-return profile. Whether your objective is a steady low-risk return or a more active growth target, our asset managers take care of all the details. And our commitment to oversight, regular reporting, and rebalancing ensures your portfolio stays on track to achieve your goals.
INSURANCE SOLUTIONS
​
Insurance can be an effective tool to protect your financial security while leaving a larger estate for your beneficiaries, providing a cushion for transitioning a business to the next generation, and covering taxes and other major expenses resulting from estate liquidation. Our experts will assess your current insurance coverage and identify any risks to your financial security, filling any gaps in coverage, including death, disability, and critical illness. We will show you how to get better value for premiums paid by managing insurance as a cost-effective defensive strategy.
TAX PLANNING
​
Tax-efficiency is critical to wealth creation and preservation, so we overlay proven tax-minimization strategies on your financial plan and investment portfolios. Not only do we apply tax-efficient thinking to our investment portfolios, but we also assess your personal and family tax situation. To ensure you and your family are managing taxes effectively, we look at such tax-deferral vehicles as Registered Retired Savings Plans (RRSPs), Tax-Free Savings Accounts (TFSAs) to maximize tax-free investment growth, life insurance and annuities, income-splitting through family trusts, prescribed rate loans, and spousal RRSPs.
ESTATE PLANNING
​
An estate plan defines how you will distribute your money and property in the most tax-efficient way when you die, with a focus on wills, insurance, and executors. Our experts will assess your current estate plan and recommend any changes you might need to reflect your current situation. Some of the key aspects we will consider include providing a trouble-free, tax-efficient transition of your estate to beneficiaries, and ensuring your assets are distributed according to your wishes. We will also review powers of attorney or living wills and trusts in the event of a critical illness or disability.
FINANCIAL PLANNING SUITE FOR THE C-SUITE
​
Business owners, executives, and senior mangers face special financial-planning challenges because very often, business and personal planning are intermingled. So Castlemark offers an integrated financial planning suite for the C-suite. We will look at maximizing your rewards as a senior executive, including legal, tax, and estate-planning elements. Financial independence is key, and Castlemark specializes in high-net-worth investment planning, targeting growth with capital preservation. With our expertise in tax planning, we can help you maximize personal tax efficiency through deferred compensation strategies, income splitting, sheltering capital gains, and more. We will also help you assess and manage risk, including employer equity exposure as well as general insurance needs. And with Castlemark’s specialty in executive retirement planning (including Individual Pension Plans), we will help ensure your exit strategy meshes with your retirement objectives for financial independence.
