I help professional women & their families who are ready to free themselves from the stressful burden they feel about their money. Together, we will plan your finances around the life you want to live. We will create a plan that’s designed for your attitude towards risk and most importantly about the life you want to lead.

Sterling Rempel, RIAC CFP CIM CLU TEP MFA-P

Your values are deeply personal. Our approach is too.
We work with clients to consider the profound questions, ‘Will I be OK?’ and ‘How can I look after my family?’, and move beyond that to help them connect their money to what’s meaningful to them.

We help business owners and professionals align their finances with their values, by planning for financial independence, family and social legacies, responsible investing and philanthropy.
People like doing business with us because they are ready to combine meaning with their money.

We are licensed as an independent agent to provide our clients with tax-preferred insurance solutions, employee benefit plans, responsible investments and sustainable retirement income.

Rick Morson

Following an educational approach to managed money and focusing on how the different investment styles and disciplines complement each other to reduce risk, allows you to stay fully invested when you need to be.

Rick Morson has been an Investment Advisor on Vancouver Island for over 30 years. He has been proud to call the Comox Valley home for the past 22 years. Rick believes in contributing both personally and professionally to the remarkable Comox Valley.

As an Investment Advisor, Portfolio Manager Rick specializes in income oriented investments and has a diverse portfolio of private and public-sector clients. He takes an educational approach to advising his investors and clients. Over three decades of experience has taught Rick that the most successful investors are those who participate in the process and take advantage of learning opportunities.

As Rick designs a plan based on your values, he also applies those principles to your investments by offering responsible investment options. Responsible investment is the integration of environmental sustainability, social responsibility and corporate governance factors (ESG) into the selection and management of portfolios. It’s about managing risk to long-term shareholder and stakeholder value by analyzing ESG factors alongside of traditional financial ratios and research.

Rick believes responsible investments will allow his clients to leave a greater legacy for their children and grandchildren. It also provides him, in his role as your Investment Advisor, an opportunity to advise, educate, and leave the world a better place.
