Scott Stennett, SVP, Head of Digital Strategies and Advisor Services at Richardson Wealth, shares how our transition to Fidelity Clearing Canada has allowed us to have a more sophisticated, efficient digital system for advisor teams.

“Generally speaking, advisors all have access to the same product shelf of equities, funds, exchange-traded funds and bonds. So, more and more, it’s the digital platform that will differentiate the experience.”
