About This Course

Welcome to "Advising the Empowered Investor: Strategies for 2025." This course offers a comprehensive look into the evolving Canadian investment landscape, equipping advisors with critical insights to navigate shifts in investor behavior, technological demands, and macroeconomic policies.

We dissect the dramatic pivot toward national loyalty in purchasing habits, the complex interplay of demographics in investment decisions, and the rise of alternative asset classes.

You will gain a deep understanding of:

  • The "Buy Canadian" movement and its regional nuances.
  • Generational differences in portfolio management and the barriers to financial objectives.
  • The emergence of DIY investors and the demand for hybrid advice models.
  • Key drivers of investor satisfaction, including trust, people, and ease of doing business.
  • The impact of Generative AI on financial information seeking and decision-making.

Beyond investor behavior, we delve into the fiscal realities shaping Canada's future, examining hard fiscal constraints, the debate between spending and revenue problems, and the urgent need for tax reform. The course also highlights the critical importance of a "dashboard approach" to fiscal anchors and the imperative of institutional discipline.

Crucially, we prepare you for the unprecedented intergenerational wealth transfer, providing strategies to retain assets, understand multi-generational priorities, and distinguish your practice as either a comprehensive advisor or a recognized specialist. By the end of this course, you will be empowered to advise the modern investor, build a resilient practice, and thrive amidst economic shifts and technological advancements.
