The Cost of Doing Nothing

📉 Idle Corporate Cash

$500K earning 4% interest at top tax rate (50.17%).

Cost: $10K per year in unnecessary tax ($300K over 30 years).

⚖️ No HoldCo Structure

Passive investments in OpCo trigger SBD grind.

Cost: Loss of $50K-$100K per year in SBD eligibility.

🏚️ No Estate Strategy

$5M estate with no structure creates $2M+ CRA bill at death.

Cost: Family forced to liquidate or borrow to pay taxes.

📈 No Tax-Efficient Growth

Traditional funds vs. corporate-class funds: 1-2% annual drag.

Cost: $1M+ lost compounding over 30 years.

Combined impact: $3M-$5M+ in preventable erosion over a lifetime.

Switch to Dynasty Planning

💰 Put Every Dollar to Work

Corporate cash deployed in tax-efficient structures, not idle earning interest at punitive rates.

🏗️ Build Lifetime Tax Reduction

Use HoldCo/OpCo separation, CDA, RDTOH, and corporate-class funds to reduce lifetime tax drag.

🛡️ Create Estate Liquidity

Build insurance-backed liquidity for succession and estate needs, protecting what you've built.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Align with Family Legacy

Structure wealth to transfer efficiently to the next generation, not erode through tax inefficiency.

👉 The choice isn't between risk and safety: it's between erosion and compounding.

Our 3-Step Approach to Generational Outcomes

Step 1

Optimize for tax

Design around efficient income types and deferral to reduce drag and boost compounding.

Step 2

Invest with leaders

Brand-agnostic research to identify managers with durable edge and process discipline.

Step 3

Structure to last

Align accounts, entities, and insurance to support succession and multi-gen continuity.

Our Investment Discipline

Dynasty-First Mindset

We build portfolios designed for decades, focusing on multi-generational wealth transfer, not short-term market noise.

Tax-Efficiency is Paramount

We prioritize after-tax returns by leveraging structures like the CDA, RDTOH, and corporate-class funds to maximize what you keep.

Independent & Unbiased

We are brand-agnostic, researching available fund and insurance solutions to identify best-in-class options for your unique corporate structure.

Who This Is For

This approach works best for incorporated business owners who think in decades, not quarters, and value structure over speculation.

Ideal Fit

  • Think in decades, not quarters
  • Value structure and discipline
  • Care about the example set for the next generation
  • Want an independent, thoughtful partner
  • Already have capable professionals (CPA, lawyer)
  • Willing to invest time in understanding

Not a Good Fit

  • Want fast answers and quick fixes
  • Prefer short-term optimization
  • Want transactional advice
  • Prefer to delegate completely without involvement
  • Are looking for guarantees or promises
  • Want to replace your CPA or lawyer

That clarity is intentional. Better to identify a mismatch early than waste time on both sides.

How We Work

Frequently Asked Questions

Is corporate investing the same as personal?

No. Corporate accounts face different tax treatment. Prioritizing efficient income types and deferral often matters more than chasing headline yields.

Do you work only with one bank or insurer?

No. We're independent and brand-agnostic. We compare across providers and recommend what best fits your objectives and constraints.

Can you coordinate with my accountant and lawyer?

Yes. We regularly collaborate to align HoldCo/OpCo, trusts, estate freezes, and insurance design with your tax and legal plan.
