Julie Lafrenière Team

We are dedicated to providing you with effective service that meets your needs. We have a long-term vision and put our expertise towards serving you better. That's why we've been integrating environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria into our model portfolio for several years now.

We believe in responsible investment, without compromising our clients' financial returns. ESG criteria help us support businesses that promote sustainable development and respect social and human responsibilities. These align perfectly with our values.

Mission

To put our expertise to work to offer you personalized portfolio and wealth management services:
  • Through a rigorous and disciplined approach 
  • By considering your needs and goals—both personal and financial 
  • By keeping close ties with you in a way that meets your needs
  • Through well-organized and regular monitoring

Investment Philosophy

We take a bottom-up approach to value investing, selecting securities based on economic value added (EVA). This lets us choose companies that are leaders in their respective sectors. The securities chosen for our portfolios reflect the strength and stability of these companies’ operations.

Our rigorous selection process helps us find high-quality companies with:
  • Return on capital greater than cost 
  • Price below intrinsic value (P/IV)
  • Dividend stability and/or growth
  • Adequate liquidity ratios
  • An acceptable level of debt

Our disciplined approach to asset allocation results in:
  • Minimum volatility
  • Maximized risk-return ratios
  • Securities selected based on EVA

A personalized relationship and structured monitoring
