"Client centric" Business Model - Something new and different

In 2013, Tom completed the development of a unique fee based business model, years in the making and after much research.

The primary and clear advantage of this model is that it offers clients significant fee savings when compared to traditional mutual and segregated funds, while increasing investment flexibility.

By leveraging the world class advisor support available through Raymond James Ltd. and Raymond James Financial Planning, Tom continues to offer the complete suite of financial planning services while also giving clients a unique and focused investment experience tailored to client needs and better positioned for success.

The amount of time and specialization involved with this type of account requires minimum household investable assets of $250,000.
