Investment Planning and Management in Ontario
Secure your financial future with personalized investment planning and management through Desjardins Financial Security Independent Network (DFSIN Toronto West). Our team helps you grow, protect, and optimize your wealth using proven strategies designed around your goals, risk tolerance, and timeline.

Comprehensive Investment Planning from DFSIN Toronto West
Investment planning is about more than just money; it’s about peace of mind. At DFSIN Toronto West, we combine professional guidance with personalized strategy to help you make confident financial decisions. Whether you’re building savings, preparing for retirement, or managing existing assets, our approach ensures every dollar has a purpose.
Our advisors start with a detailed risk assessment, reviewing your goals, income streams, and investment horizon. We then design a portfolio that balances growth and security, typically blending bonds, equities, and guaranteed products to deliver long-term stability.
Exploring the Various Aspects of Investment Planning & Management in Canada
Investment success depends on understanding key factors that shape your financial future. Our advisors walk you through every stage, from evaluating life expectancy and health to preparing for the lifestyle you want in retirement.
Estimating Your Life Expectancy
A foundational part of wealth planning, life expectancy projections help determine how long your resources must last. By factoring in health, family history, and retirement age, we help create plans that sustain lifetime income.
We model “longevity risk” scenarios to ensure your savings last, even if you live longer than expected.
Determining Your Financial Health & Well-Being Zone
Assessing your financial health helps you gauge preparedness for the future. DFSIN advisors review your current insurance, savings habits, debt levels, and investment diversification.
- Do you have adequate life and health coverage?
- Are you saving consistently toward your retirement goal?
- Do you have an emergency fund?
- Are your assets growing faster than inflation?
Planning Your Retirement
Retirement planning goes hand in hand with investment management. Whether you envision travelling, pursuing new projects, or enjoying quiet time with family, we create financial models that align resources with aspirations.
