Julie Gallagher, President and CEO of Richardson Wealth shares “For me, independence is freedom of choice, freedom to build your team your own way, freedom to decide what’s best for your clients, freedom on the investment piece. If we talk about products it’s also about freedom to use tools that you need, in addition to what’s provided, to service your clients.”

Julie discusses with Wealth Professional Canada what advisors can expect from her leadership, the importance of transparency and how she looks forward to building strong relationships with advisors.
