Patrick Briscoe

Patrick entered the financial industry in 2011 after returning from a six-month teaching trip in London, England. As a certified teacher with a keen interest in finance, Patrick was inspired to combine his skill set. Once landed back in Canada he quickly began his journey to becoming a Financial Advisor – it was a natural fit!

Since 2012, Patrick’s main focus has been holistic financial advice for his clients – considering all aspects of their financial picture. Now a Certified Financial Planner, Patrick assists clients in making calculated steps toward their retirement, tax, and estate planning goals. And he does so in a friendly and common-sense manner that is easy to understand – he is a teacher after all!

Patrick holds an Honors BA in Social Justice & Peace Studies and Political Science from Western University, a Bachelor of Education (U of T), and is a member of the Responsible Investment Association and Rotary International.

Patrick’s dedication to social justice goes beyond the office and socially responsible investments. He has participated in various humanitarian initiatives, including free educational summer camps for children in Jamaica, a month-long food security delegation to El Salvador, among others.

When not at the office, Patrick is spending time with his wife Rita, and their children. He has the travel bug and also enjoys skiing, scuba diving, and learning new hobbies.

Peter has been part of the Legacy Wealth Coach network since 2001. His firm uses a values-based planning approach designed to answer three questions: What does it mean to be financially independent? What is an appropriate legacy for my family? Is my estate arranged in a manner consistent with my values? Part of the values conversation explores the use of RI as a criteria for investment decisions. Peter obtained his RIS designation in 2019.

Peter joined the Estate Planning Council of Toronto in 2011.
