Is there a difference between a Portfolio Manager and an Investment Advisor?
Yes, there is.
A Portfolio Manager is licensed to manage a client’s portfolio on a discretionary basis. Discretionary refers to the fact that investment decisions are made at the Portfolio Manager’s judgement.
An Investment Advisor is NOT licensed to do this.

What we, as Portfolio Managers, can offer:
Discretionary Portfolio Management
The Portfolio Manager designation offers an enhanced measure of wealth management and requires the highest level of education and experience in the investment industry.
Peace of mind
Guided by an Investment Policy Statement tailored to your specific needs, a Portfolio Manager follows regulatory standards and a strict investment discipline that offer added security.
Accountability
A Portfolio Manager’s fiduciary responsibility means he or she acts with a higher standard of
care, honesty and good faith – and always first and foremost in your best interest.
Active
Delegating day-to-day decisions to a Portfolio Manager allows for quick response to unexpected market moves, helps safeguard your assets in difficult markets and the ability to take advantage of unforeseen investment opportunities.
Block trading
A portfolio Manager can execute timely trades for multiple clients simultaneously, helping ensure fair access to market opportunities, though individual outcomes may vary due to allocation methods and market conditions.
Flexible options
A Portfolio Manager has access to a broad range of investment choices, including bonds, stocks,
mutual funds, ETFs and alternative investments, offering you the best strategies and instruments to grow your wealth.
Fee Transparency
Portfolio Manager fees are transparent, based on a percentage of your investments rather than
on commissions from high transaction volumes, and may be tax-deductible in the case of non-registered accounts.
