Canadians can no longer rely on company pension plans to provide them with a secure future. Increasingly, investors have to make tough investment decisions on their own or pay someone to do it for them. But where does one start?
There is certainly no shortage of commentators, salespeople, and data available about what you should do, yet, it is often contradictory and overwhelming. What Kind of an Investor Are You? cuts through all of that and allows you to figure out what is best for you. Should you be doing this on your own or should you hire a financial advisor? This book will help you formulate the best plan for you — one that you will be comfortable with, allowing you to achieve your financial goals.
Each copy of the book is inscribed with a code that will allow the reader to access an innovative self-assessment tool for investors at www.investorgauge.com.
Praise for What Kind of an Investor Are You?:
"Recognizing one's own behavioural biases is a key step in the development of a financial plan, but is too often overlooked when focusing on basis points instead of overall suitability. This book provides easy-to-follow guidance for individual investors to determine what kind of investors they really are and to prepare successfully for their retirement."
— Peter Klein, Associate Professor of Finance, RBC Investments Fellow, Academic Director, Global Asset and Wealth Management MBA, Segal Graduate School of Business, Simon Fraser University
"This book is one of the best in highlighting the importance of proper asset allocation and how to achieve it. Written in a practical, easy-to-comprehend style, this book will help investors avoid financial fiascos."
— Ken Kivenko, Investor Advocate, President, Kenmar
"When it comes to investing, understanding yourself is as important as understanding capital markets. Richard Deaves masterfully blends investment theory with behavioural finance to help you become a better investor."
— Howard J. Atkinson, CFA, CIMA, author of The New Investment Frontier III
