Empire Life Asset Allocation GIF Commentary

Although Global Equities have enjoyed strong performance in the first half of the year, we maintain a conservative positioning.

 

Economic resilience has driven global equity valuations higher in the first half of the year, leading us to decrease our overall equity exposure from 57% to 54%.


The fund’s fixed income duration has also been increased from 5.7 years at the beginning of the year to 6.3 years as we expect that central banks are near the end of their rate-hiking cycle. Learn more about other tactical decisions made to the fund.

Getting paid for the value you provide

Regulations and product changes drive how advisors get paid.


However, the biggest drivers of change are changing client behaviours, expectations and priorities. Client experiences are the most prominent factor impacting many of the changes we see today. Their preferences for services and relationships can help advisors understand how to position or refine their service offerings and value propositions.


In this webinar, we will look at, how advisors get paid and the value they provide, as defined from the client’s perspective.

 

Date: Wednesday, September 20, 2023 

Time: 2:00 pm to 2:45 pm ET

This webinar is also available in French on Thursday, September 21, 2023 at 10:00 a.m. ET

AML Dual Method documents

When you are required to verify the identity of a client, you are required to confirm the document(s) are authentic, valid and current and then populate the information in the fields on the form or application. You are not required to provide Empire Life with a copy of the documents themselves. We will be updating our forms and applications to provide clearer instructions and reviewing our follow-up process. The only time Empire Life requires copies of the documents is in situations where a client or beneficiary is working without an advisor and they are required to have their identity verified. In those cases, we will coordinate with the client to obtain copies of their identification documents for validation purposes.
