Investors who work with a financial advisor have an average net worth nearly three times greater and investible assets to be four times greater than non-advised investors¹.

Yet despite this many Canadians don't receive advice and, as a result, 47% don't have a long term investment plan for retirement, while 44% say they are not financially prepared for their retirement².

Because of this many media outlets and observers such as Statistics Canada and Canadian Business magazine have concluded that a career in financial planning is a major growth area as the demand for financial professionals far outweighs the available supply of qualified individuals.

As a Consultant with Investors Group, you will build lifelong relationships with clients and advise them on important decisions at critical points in their lives. The relationship built between a client and their advisor is vital as 44% of Canadians feel seeking the advice of a professional financial advisor is the best way to become more financially knowledgeable³.

This is just a glimpse of what it is like to build a business with an industry leader like Investors Group. Contact me today for more information to find out what it's like to benefit from the Investors Group Advantage.

What do you feel is the best way to become more financially knowledgeable?

Studies show that financial advisors help clients build more wealth, save more of what they earn, become more financial literate and be more confident about their future, as compared to Canadians with no advisor.
