Katrina Cheng, Financial Advisor at Edward Jones

Katrina Cheng, Financial Advisor at Edward Jones I always had a special connection to my grandfather. My grandfather always spoke fondly of his Edward Jones Financial Advisor.

He was the only member of our family to have completed a university degree (until I came along), and he spent his career as an accountant, which is also where I started my career. Their relationship started with a knock at his door, and over the years it grew into a trusted partnership that spilled over to include his children and grandchildren. The advisor was also there when the time came to set

tle my grandfather's estate, and remains an important contributor to our family's financial wellbeing. If this story resonates with you, you've come to the right place. As a Financial Advisor, I help my clients make intentional, well-informed decisions about their financial futures. It is never "too early" or "too late" to get clarity on where you are, where you're going and whether you're on track to meet your goals. The reality is that most of us don't set aside dedicated time to update and review our financial situation on a regular basis - even those of us who work in/around the finance industry. I am here to build a long-term strategy for you that involves diversified, high-quality investments, life insurance and coordination between other professionals (lawyers, accountants, etc.), and I'll partner with you to execute that strategy throughout your life. Above all else, I want to give you confidence in your future so that you can redirect your energy to the people, places and things that are most important to you! I joined Edward Jones after a successful career as an accountant and finance technology implementation consultant. I earned my HBA (Business Administration) degree through the Ivey Business School at Western University in London, Ontario, and subsequently achieved my Chartered Professional Accountant (CPA, CA) designation. I grew up in the small town of Schomberg, Ontario, and now live in the east end of Toronto with my husband and our two daughters, Hazel and Beatrice. I am active in the community and volunteer as the piano accompanist for the choirs at our local school. Depending on the season, you can find me as a spectator at my kids' hockey, gymnastics, baseball, soccer, swimming or music lessons/events. I also enjoy travelling, downhill skiing/snowboarding, cycling, playing video games and being generally musical or physically active.

If funds in a Registered Education Savings Plan (RESP) aren’t used for education, the investment growth can be taxed at your marginal rate plus an additional 20%. If you have RRSP contribution room, you may be able to transfer up to $50,000 of that growth into your RRSP, helping you avoid the penalty and defer tax until a future date.

If you’d like help assessing whether this strategy fits your situation, I’m here to guide you.

Did you know dividends from Canadian companies can qualify for preferential tax treatment through the dividend tax credit depending on your individual circumstances? That's different from foreign dividends, which are generally taxed as ordinary income and may not qualify for the same tax credit treatment. It's an important distinction that can shape your overall tax picture.

As part of our tax planning strategies webinar series, we're breaking down practical insights like these, because smart financial planning matters all year long, not just at tax time. I can work with your tax professional to help make sense of what this means for your specific situation. Let's connect.

💡 Not all investment income is taxed the same, and interest income is usually the least tax-efficient of them all.

If you're earning interest income within a savings account or hold GICSs or bonds in your portfolio, it's worth understanding exactly how they're taxed, and what that means for your overall investment strategy.

Watch to learn how savings accounts, GICs and bonds are taxed.

Your pension decision often comes down to one core question, do you value guaranteed income or control and flexibility?

Staying in your defined benefit pension provides predictable lifetime income, with payments determined by plan rules and no requirement to make ongoing investment decisions. For many, this simplicity and structure is appealing.

Taking the commuted value gives you control over how your money is invested, flexibility around withdrawals within regulatory limits, and the ability to keep assets in your name for estate planning purposes. In exchange, you take on responsibility for investment outcomes and give up the lifetime income provided by the pension.

Neither option is universally better. The right choice depends on your comfort with investment risk, your desire for control, your other retirement income sources, and your estate goals.

Your pension is a significant part of your retirement picture. If you’d like help weighing these tradeoffs, I’m happy to walk through your options with you.

When you retire or change employers, you may face a significant financial decision: Should you stay in your pension plan, or transfer the assets to accounts under your control?www.edwardjones.ca/ca-en
