What we do

Corporate finance & tax strategy

Structure retained earnings and surplus corporate cash with a clear view of tax, risk, access to capital and long-term goals.

Succession & estate planning

Your company is a key part of your family’s present and future. We help you align shareholder arrangements, family objectives and estate plans so that business value can be transitioned in an orderly, tax-efficient way.

Tax-advantaged investment & retirement structures

We help you design the structures around your investments – corporate, registered and insurance-based – and implement the insurance and segregated fund solutions where they make sense in your overall plan.

Who we work with

We work with Canadian business owners who are actively leading and growing privately held companies, and who are starting to ask longer-term questions about tax, capital and succession.

Typically, our clients:

  • Own and control one or more private corporations in Canada

  • Have built profitable businesses with meaningful retained earnings or surplus corporate cash

  • Are thinking beyond this year’s tax return — about retirement, potential exit and long-term wealth planning

If you are at the helm of your company and want a clearer, more coherent plan for how business capital supports your personal and family goals, we may be a good fit.
