Paul Polyviou CFP, CLU, CIM THE SIMPLE CHOICE FOR COMPLEX FINANCIAL MATTERS. Helping you achieve your goals - one step at a time. www.financialguardian.ca

Since 2003, I have defined personal financial planning as a process of determining an individual’s or family’s financial goals, purpose in life, and life’s priorities. After considering their resources, risk profile, and current lifestyle, a detailed and realistic plan is prepared to help meet those goals. My designations as a Certified Financial Planner (CFP), Chartered Life Underwriter (CLU), an

d Chartered Investment Manager (CIM) reinforce my ability to provide ongoing comprehensive financial planning advice in the areas of investing, retirement, tax, insurance, and estate planning. By specializing in these, I am better positioned to assist my clients in achieving their financial objectives. My team and I strive to ensure excellent service is received by all clients and seek to educate and provide timely information on a consistent basis.
