The new First Home Savings Account (FHSA) has a maximum lifespan of 15 years, so opening one prematurely could result in you having to close it before you're ready to buy a home.

Let's look at some key factors to consider when determining if it makes sense for you to open an FHSA this year.

Here are some tips to help you get started with an estate planning strategy. Let's talk.

The idea of putting together an estate strategy may sound complicated, but it doesn't have to be.

This legal structure, called “joint tenants with right of survivorship”, makes your children joint owners of the family cottage during your lifetime. It allows you to deal with capital gains tax now, instead of upon inheritance, so the cottage transfers to them tax-free when you pass.

With a few weeks left until the end of 2023, markets remain on track for a strong finish. As the torch passes to 2024, investors are counting on a successful central bank pivot away from restrictive policy to a more neutral stance to build on this year's gains. We think the BoC's next move will be a rate cut instead of a hike, but the timing of when that might happen could be a source of volatility. Nonetheless, we see the potential end of tightening and the start of an easing cycle as a catalyst for further gains in bond prices and a broadening in equity market leadership. In our weekly market update we offer three reasons why we see a gradual shift in policy ahead.
