Perspective on Working with Dentists
Following a recommendation from his business professor, Shane took the Canadian Securities Course and he never looked back. After working in the banking sector, he joined CDSPI Advisory Services Inc. in 2015 to serve the dental community.
In addition to the more common goals, dentists are like most high earning Canadians in their goals of financing their children's education, retirement savings, and buying a dream property. Where their needs get more complicated are in the areas of buying and selling their practices, setting up financial vehicles, and leveraging their corporations to grow their wealth while minimizing taxes. Dentists are driven professionals who understand the value of expert financial advice. “Having previously worked in the banking industry with the pressure of commission sales, I’ve thoroughly enjoyed how CDSPI empowers me to offer sound advice to my clients without the inherent bias of commission structures.”
