Some points to consider

If you have a trust, don’t forget that it must file its annual income tax return before March 30, 2023.
If you are planning to retire within the next few years, get in touch with your advisor to discuss your situation and possibly review your investment strategy. Are your risk tolerance and your investment horizon still the same? Is your asset allocation still appropriate for your situation? Have certain events in your personal or professional life changed your goals or your retirement plan? Take advantage of your advisor’s expertise to update your portfolio so that it accurately reflects your current plan and goals.

For any questions concerning your wealth, don’t hesitate to contact your Wealth Management Advisor who will be pleased answer them!
