Implementation Process and Disclosure – During the term of this agreement, the Advisor will provide services to co-ordinate the implementation of the action plan. In implementing any action plan steps, at the Client’s discretion, the Client may acquire insurance products and investments through the Advisor for which the Advisor
is authorized. In such transactions the nature of any compensation shall be fully disclosed.
Termination – The Client may terminate this agreement at any time by providing 30 days written notice to the Advisor at their last known mailing address. Termination of this agreement by the Client does not release the Advisor from any servicing responsibilities until such time as alternative arrangements are made.
Third Party Professionals – During the process of providing financial advice it may, from time to time, be prudent to consult with other third party professionals such as a lawyer or accountant. In the event that such a consultation is deemed necessary, the Client will be advised and asked to approve such consultation, which may include a consultation fee.
Confidentiality – During the course of this relationship, it will be necessary for the Client to provide a variety of personal financial information. The quality of the work done on behalf of the Client will be dependent on the accuracy and completeness of this information. The Advisor commits that all information will be held in strictest
confidence and that no information shall be divulged about the Client’s affairs to any outside organization or government agency without the Client’s consent unless as directed by law. It is further understood that due to the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), the Client directly authorizes the
Advisor to maintain such information as may be deemed pertinent to provide the agreed upon financial advice until requested by the Client, in writing, to destroy such information.
Conflicts of Interest – During the Advisor - Client relationship, there may be occasions where a conflict of interest may occur. The Advisor commits to disclosing any such conflicts of interest if, and when, they occur.
