  3. Why tax refunds aren't always good It’s important for advisors to help clients understand their finances. Many people think getting a tax refund is good, but that's not always true. Here are some reasons why.

    1. Overpaying Taxes
    A refund on a tax return means the client paid too much in taxes during the year. This is like giving the government an interest-free loan. Instead, clients could use that money each month for savings or investments.

    2. Missed Investment Chances
    When clients overpay taxes, they miss chances to invest that money. It could have been earning interest or growing in value instead of sitting with the government.

    3. Poor Financial Planning
    A big tax refund can show poor financial planning. It's better if clients break even, meaning they don't owe much and don't get a big return. This shows their tax withholdings are accurate.

    4. False Sense of Security
    A large tax refund can make clients feel falsely secure. They might spend it quickly instead of saving or investing it wisely.

    5. Financial Hardship
    Overpaying taxes can make it hard for clients to manage their money during the year. They might struggle with monthly expenses or saving for emergencies.

    Advisors should teach clients about the downsides of tax refunds. By adjusting their withholdings, clients can manage their money better and take advantage of investment opportunities. Aim for a balanced tax situation to improve financial health.

    Help clients make the most of their investment opportunities this tax season. For more information, contact your Director, Investment Sales.

  5. 5 topics to discuss with large case clients Are you working with high-net-worth business owner clients? It’s important to ask the right questions to get them interested in learning how corporate-owned life insurance might benefit their situation.

    Here are a few suggestions from our large case team:
    1. 
    Capital Dividend Account: Are you taking full advantage of your company’s Capital Dividend Account for your family?
    2. 
    Cash flow and surplus: Do you have surplus cash or cash flow in your corporation? Why is it there? If it is for tax deferral, would you like to make some or all of that deferral permanent?
    3. 
    Legacy: What do you want to happen to your business when you’re no longer there? How much of what you have built do you want to preserve for your family? How much will be preserved?
    4. 
    Shareholder’s agreement: Do you have a shareholder’s agreement? How is it funded? Does it deal with triggering events like death, disability, and retirement?
    5. 
    Worse-case scenarios: If you were not able to show up at your business for 3 months, and no one expected it, what would happen? What would creditors, customers, suppliers, and employees do?

    Visit our large case webpage and watch Ask our Experts to learn more about the importance of careful planning when it comes to corporate policy ownership.
     
  6. Let’s “Talk Money”: Helping clients feel better about their finances This November is Financial Literacy Month, and the theme is simple but powerful: “Talk Money.” The goal is simple—get Canadians talking about money. When people open up about budgeting, debt, or financial stress, they feel more confident and less alone.

    Money and mental health are connected
    Many Canadians feel stressed about money. That stress can affect their mental health. As an advisor, you can help by starting honest conversations. When clients talk about their worries, they’re more likely to take action and feel better.

    How advisors can help
    You don’t need to be a therapist. Just listen, ask questions, and offer simple steps. Here are a few ideas:

     
    Let’s talk money
    Talking about money helps people feel stronger and more in control. This month, let’s help clients open up, take action, and build better habits—financially and emotionally.

  7. Lin covers her life, her partner, her home, and business with Equitable’s Term Life insurance Lin has just opened her new business. Her partner Terri has supported her through it all, managing the bills and the mortgage so Lin can focus on getting her store established.
