Jeff Smith CFP®, CLU, BBA
Jeff is the Executive Financial Consultant of his practice at IG Private Wealth Management. He has been in the financial services industry for over 25 years, spanning multiple recessions, market downturns, and economic and political turmoil. Recognizing the shortcomings of a predominantly sales-driven industry, his personal approach instead concentrates on what is in the best interest of clients, thus eliminating the confusion generated by a media machine that causes financial stress and misdirection. Throughout his career with IG he has gained valuable experience in compliance, Advisor and branch supervision.
“I am grateful to play a role in helping Canadians realize the value in relying on the skill of a Financial Advisor to deliver superior returns and to give them financial confidence,” Jeff explains. “Empowering clients to focus on the factors within their control and trust us with the rest makes the difference between financial dependence and financial freedom. We want to help clients retire comfortably and provide for loved ones regardless of market performance and global factors.”
Jeff is a devoted father who values the time he is fortunate to spend with his two children, and supports their involvement in hockey and soccer. Along with his wife, he loves to travel and the challenge of learning new things. He is an avid motorsport enthusiast, whether it be on a snowmobile in Northern Ontario or in a racecar in the Nevada Desert.
