f you are looking for an expert team of
finance professionals and investment
advisors to manage your financial
affairs, you have come to the right
place. Born and raised in Saskatchewan,
Byron and Shannon Briske have built
a strong clientele base in the prairie
provinces as financial advisors with
Assante Financial Management Ltd.
Specializing in high net worth clients
such as professionals, business owners,
farmers, and professional athletes,
Byron and Shannon have the tools to
advise individuals on all aspects of their
financial situation.
What really sets the Briskes apart from
other financial advisors is the exceptional
team of industry professionals they have
at their disposal to help them advise their
clients on all aspects of their finances. On
their team, Byron and Shannon take care
of all the finance and insurance matters.
For most accounting related matters,
they have several accounting firms they
work closely with: some who specialize
in small to medium business accounting,
and others who specialize in agriculture.
Likewise, the Briskes work very closely
with several law firms on client advising:
some specializing in contract law, and
others specializing in all aspects of tax
litigation and auditing. Through their
relationships with these leading firms,
the Briskes can effectively advise their
clients on complex financial matters, and
help them with all aspects of their wealth
management needs.
The Briskes firmly believe that team
work is the key to effective financial
advising. Byron attests, “When the flow
of information goes from professional
to professional to professional smoothly
and timely, it makes for a far more
enjoyable client experience.” The Briskes
also work very closely with their clients’
own lawyers and accountants: “It’s all
about team work, and getting the client
the best advice available, it is difficult
when there is friction between advisors,”
says Byron.
The Briskes host a business advisory
luncheon series in the Q Room at Tusq
Restaurant called “You’re Successful
… Now What?” wherein they bring
expert lawyers, insurance providers,
and other leaders in business fields,
to speak to clients on specialized
financial matters that are important
to business owners. The lunches take
place generally once a month, or every
six weeks, and there is a new speaker
at every lunch. “These luncheons are
very important for us, because they
help educate our clients in specialized
areas related to their businesses,”
says Byron. They are very intimate
and interactive, as the conference
room seats only 14 people.
The Briskes’ tremendous energy and
devotion to their work is evident, as they
have placed within the top 25 advisors
at Assante six of the past seven years.
The Briske brothers are very proud of
this, as there are over nine hundred
Assante advisors across Canada. The
Briske brothers pride themselves on
providing sound financial advice. If you
are looking for more customized and
complete financial advice from a team
of experts, contact Byron and Shannon
