Our Investment Philosophy :
Bringing Discipline to your Investment Portfolio

The RBC Wealth Management Dominion Seurities' Strategy Committee provides a disciplined approach and a rigorous quarterly review process to managing your portfolio. It helps your portfolio stay well diversified with high quality companies and is structured to fit our current economic outlook. While most portfolio managers rely on only one financial analysis approach, the Strategic Committee takes into account the top-down economic analysis and bottom-up company screening process. The RBC Wealth Management Strategy Committee, comprised of senior investment professionals, makes regular forecasts on key macroeconomic variables including interest rates, economic and earnings growth and prevailing valuations of equity markets. The committee then makes recommendations on the number of companies your portfolio should hold in each major sector. A good sector diversification and distribution is often more profitable than trying to invest into one prospective ‘'gem'' corporation.
