Cantin-Gauvreau Team

The Cantin Gauvreau Team favours long-term business relationships. This is why Mr. Gauvreau and Mr. Cantin always start with an initial interview during which they take the time to establish your financial goals and investor profile. Only after this interview and after understanding your financial needs do these conscientious professional advisors apply thoughtful recommendations for fulfilling your personal financial goals.

An investment portfolio should fit the needs of each client and should be reviewed periodically. The aim is to maintain adequate diversification while minimizing fluctuations in the portfolio. André and Yves take a realistic and prudent approach to building portfolios. Their approach is not for speculators.
