Our company was formed with the simple goal, to provide guidance to our clients in making informed decisions that are consistent with their goals.
For the last 7 years Bernard has worked leading an administrative team to manage the $1.4 Billion+ pension plan of the University of Manitoba impacting 5,000+ members. The work required collaborative relationships with institutional investment managers, investment consultants, actuaries, accountants, lawyers, tax advisors, the custodian, and the Pension Committee and Investment Subcommittee. For the previous 9 years Bernard led an administrative team working together with Senior Management, the Pension Board, and professional consultants to manage $80 Million+ in retirement savings assets for 80+ municipalities and organizations at the Alberta Urban Municipalities Association (AUMA) including a defined benefit and a defined contribution pension plan, a Group RRSP, a Group TFSA and a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan.
