Wealth Management•

Your Retirement Dream

What is Wealth Management? It is described as "...more than just investment advice, as it can encompass all parts of a person's financial life..." and "...the combination of financial/investment advice, accounting/tax services, and legal/estate planning...". Warkentin Group Private Wealth Management defines wealth management as the integration of a comprehensive financial plan, collaboratively designed by you and our team, with a disciplined, purpose-built process to grow and protect your wealth. This approach includes ongoing review, refinement, and attentive stewardship of your financial portfolio to ensure it remains aligned with your goals.

Advanced Wealth Management Strategies

When most of us think of financial planning, we think investments. Few investors focus on building wealth through tax minimization. By running a boutique wealth management practice, we've been able to work closely with our client families in order to design and implement customized strategies with a goal to both build and retain wealth.

A truly holistic wealth management strategy must integrate a refined and sophisticated process that extends beyond mere financial allocation or honing of your budget. Your retirement dream and financial wealth objectives should address every aspect of your wealth plan and growth goals; identifying inadequate methods, and developing customized solutions that will deliver in accordance with your expectations as defined when we construct your financial wealth plan. As highly experienced professionals in the industry we will define wealth management in a way that is personal to you.

Doug WarkentinMy husband (Tony) and I met Doug only a few years ago and are absolutely delighted and has our complete trust to have him tailor our investments specifically to suit our situation and helping us plan for our retirement and future needs.We knew how to earn and save money, but when it comes to financial planning and retirement we are novices. Doug always explains everything thoroughly and without confusing language. We never feel uncomfortable asking questions or expressing our concerns, his friendly character always puts us totally at ease. His depth of knowledge, lateral thinking and common-sense approach to life, just enforces our trust and respect for his choices for our future.We feel like not only have "won a lottery" in finding such an astute financial planner, BUT also in finding a new friend who we hope to have in our lives for years to come…

I have been a client of Doug Warkentin for approx. 2 years. I met a number of advisors before deciding to work with him and his team.

Since then, I’ve witnessed a number of transitions with Doug's career and organizations he’s represented.Today he’s well established with his own firm, team of resources and personalized service that I trust. Doug has continued to deliver what he believes with confidence, the evidence is in the steady growth of my portfolio.His capabilities have continually expanded and grown with his career as a result of reinvestment in himself.

Mr Warkentin did not only convince me to diversify my portfolio but educated me about the enhanced possibilities that are within my reach. My goal to retire at 55 is now a viable scenario. I thank him for being my financial guide and a caring individual that genuinely cares about his clients. I truly wish him success.

My husband and I came to Doug about a year ago for advice on financial planning, as I had never been given any by the bank I that I have worked at for 17 years. He completed a detailed financial plan for me and my family, and put together a portfolio recommendation. The reports and graphs that he showed us painted a picture we could fully understand. We now know when we can retire and are confident that we are on track. Thank you Doug!

Aneta W.

megan vun W.

Doug became our financial advisor approximately 14 years ago and over that time our professional and personal relationship developed. Doug gave us sound financial guidance providing my wife and I peace of mind when the markets were in various states of turmoil. During those times of uncertainty for me Doug provided very sound advice and encouraged both of us to remain calm and stay with the plan.Today, we are in excellent financial shape, and have financial freedom to enjoy our retirement. Many, many thanks to Doug for sharing his God given skills and abilities as he provided guidance through our very complex financial market. Even during those times of doubt and countless dumb questions he remained patient with us, providing professional and expert guidance.Doug and his staff at Warkentin Wealth Management provide us with professional, prompt, and courteous service at all times.Since taking my wife and I on as his clients, the guidance and advise provided by him is by far the best and most comprehensive in our financial history, well done Doug!

One of the most important and best financial investment decisions we have made was to have our investment portfolio managed by Doug Warkentin. The Warkentin Group Private Wealth Management team has the foundational attitude to enhance value and exceed expectations.

Daniel M.

I always feel welcomed and valued when I visit with Doug and colleagues at Warkentin Group (even though I'm a relatively small investor). I am never rushed and feel as much a friend there as a client. Doug always takes the time to respond to any questions or concerns I may have as we review my portfolio. He has also been very helpful in providing me with tips and guidance relative to tax concerns, dealing with financial institutions, responding to market pressures, whatever... My overall "comfort" and confidence In my financial situation has grown (along with my portfolio) over the course of our 20-25 year relationship and allowed me to retire several years before I thought I actually could. Many thanks to Doug and associates for doing right by me. I appreciate the professionalism, dedication, reasoned advice and "steady hand" approach of the Warkentin Group and recommend its services to any and all readers of this review.

Excellent advice, clear concise forward thinking strategies, tax saving initiatives.... Because of Doug I will have the option to retire in about 3 years and still be very, very, comfortable. Doug has been our advisor for about 6 years. His availability, approachability (is that a word?) and financial acumen are second to none. We have become great friends and look forward to our continued relationship in both the financial and social sense.

Paul B.

Doug has been our advisor for the past four years. We had previously been with another advisor for almost thirty years. Upon looking back we do not feel they had “our” best interest in mind, as the fees paid out were not producing the expected results for us. With Doug we are extremely pleased with how our portfolio has increased. Doug’s work ethics are from a bygone era. Firstly he will educate you with honesty, in layman terms what products are out there for you taking into consideration your own personal risk assessment. Everything is explained in detail and documented. It is rare to have an advisor who meets with you quarterly if not more often. Doug does not just put your money in an investment and then provide you with a “token” visit once a year but is “consistently” forward looking amending your portfolio based on market conditions and your own personal needs. Doug, thank you for always being there for us. You have become a true mentor and we value your guidance. You have our utmost respect.

D F.

Having worked with Doug, I have come to appreciate his honesty, professionalism and ongoing follow up. I would highly recommend Doug to anybody who has concerns about their financial planning.

Terry B.

Doug has been my adviser for over a decade. I have every confidence in his suggestions and strategies. He is professional and very involved. He is someone I recommend and trust. He listens to you particular situation and makes you involved in decisions. I have never had an adviser that makes me feel as comfortable with investing as Doug does. He truly wants the best for his clients.

Corey Von B.

I have been a client of Doug’s for over a decade. After years of investing with banking institutions and with advisors changing constantly who did not take the time to get to know me and understand my needs, I decided to go with an Independent Financial Advisor. Doug Warkington has taken the time to really get to know me and understand my personal financial needs. He is in regular contact with me every quarter and was also there and ready to assist me when my personal circumstances changed. It was a very emotional time and Doug was there to support me and revise my financial plan to give me peace of mind and confidence in my financial future after my husband’s passing. He always has the time to patiently answer my questions and explain my various options in a way that makes sense to me. I feel confident about my financial future with Doug managing my portfolio. His commitment to my success is evident with the returns I receive. I highly recommend Doug Warkington as an excellent choice for an independent financial advisor especially if you are looking for financial expertise with a personal touch.
