Who We Are
Money Concepts was established in the U.S. in 1979, responding to a growing
need for personal financial planning services. The company soon expanded
around the globe. In 1984, the late Grant Sylvester, a senior financial
services executive, created Money Concepts in Canada. In 1997, Money Concepts
became a wholly Canadian-owned company and to this day, Money Concepts
continues to grow with offices across the country.
What We can do for You
We recognize that with so many financial products and services available,
choosing your investment can be a daunting, even overwhelming, task. We're
here to give you personal, objective advice, at no cost and no obligation,
about your best financial options. Friendly, face-to-face service is what
sets Money Concepts apart.
We are one of the very few companies in Canada that can provide you with
independent, personalized financial planning services. Our experienced
financial planners don't sell in-house products. They are free to shop the
market for the companies, products and services that are best suited to your
financial needs and goals.
Our philosophy is based on eliminating the confusion and stress which is
associated with managing your financial affairs. It's a philosophy and a
service that begins and ends with you.
How We do it
To design your personal financial plan, your Money Concepts planner will
work with you to create a financial snapshot of where you are today. We will
do a confidential analysis of your income, assets and expenses - what you
earn, what you own and what you owe.
Your planner will work with you to set realistic financial goals and to
create strategies for achieving them. For example, your planner will
calculate the amount you need to invest each year and the rate of return you
will need on your investments to achieve your goals.
You planner will also show you how to maximize your financial resources and
minimize your financial risk. We'll provide a detailed, comprehensive plan
and help you implement it. We'll also help you in monitoring the mix of
investments called for in your plan.
Finally, your planner will meet with you on a regular basis to review your
plan's performance and to keep abreast of any changes in your circumstances
and objective. Your plan can then be adjusted accordingly.
Benefits of a Financial Plan
It is one thing to talk about financial planning. It's quite another to
make it happen. In order to achieve your goals, you must not only create a
plan, but implement that plan, monitor it and, when necessary, adjust it. A
Money Concepts representative is ready to work with you every stop of the
way. Let us help you pave the path in order for you to achieve your own
financial freedom!
