By connecting every part of your financial life into one coordinated strategy, you gain a clear roadmap designed to grow and protect your money with intention.

How do Private Wealth, Advisor-Managed Investing, Qtrade Guided Portfolios, and Qtrade Direct Investing differ?

Private Wealth offers the highest level of personalized service. it is designed for members with more complex financial needs or significant investable assets. With Private Wealth, your senior Mainstreet and Aviso Wealth advisor handles day-to-day account related activities and financial planning, while professional pension-caliber investment managers perform your portfolio construction, ongoing management, re-balancing, and reporting.

Advisor-Managed Investing offers personalized guidance and professionally built investment strategies without the full complexity of Private Wealth.

Qtrade Guided Portfolios provide a professionally managed portfolio that’s matched to your goals and risk level, but with a more streamlined, digital experience. It’s a hands-off approach, but without the broader planning elements included in Private Wealth.

Qtrade Direct Investing is the most self-directed option. It’s suited for members who prefer to make their own investment decisions, place their own trades, and manage their own portfolio using online tools and research.
