ADVISOR’S EDGE
Canada’s flagship magazine for credentialed retail financial professionals helps advisors
better understand their roles as client-facing fiduciaries, and provides them with ideas,
motivation and inspiration to do their jobs better. Each issue, forward-thinking advisors
coach their peers on ways to engage clients more effectively and learn about their goals.
Regular departments like Advisor Confidential, Tax Break and Legal Lessons provide
valuable education for readers.
ADVISOR.ca
Advisor.ca helps Canada’s client-facing investment advisors, brokers, and financial
planners do their jobs better. Our editorial focuses on:
• Industry news advisors need to better serve clients, and be prepared for the day’s
conversations.
• Articles explaining specific investment, tax, estate, insurance and planning strategies.
• Talking points and other guides to help advisors improve interactions with clients.
ADVISOR’S EDGE REPORT
is a key source of strategic intelligence for Canadian investment advisors. Each issue
boasts exclusive content to keep advisors apprised of industry developments, the latest
research, and news items that affect the way they do business. We also feature a Three
Experts column, which will include three perspectives on a challenging case study. And,
in AER’s departments, Canada’s top advisors share how best to apply investment and
insurance solutions, and to deploy tax and estate-planning strategies.

reference into these terms and conditions and are collectively referred to as the “Agreement”. The person(s), firm or corporation

at any time. Rate changes shall be made at least 30 days in
advance of the closing date of the first issue to which such
rates apply. If a rate change is not acceptable to Advertiser
or Agency, it may, within 15 days of notification of such rate
change, cancel the Agreement without incurring short rate
charges (excluding multi-year discounts).

available during the period in which they are earned.
Rebates resulting from any and all earned advertiser

the end of the period in which they are earned, and will
expire if unused during such period.
(d) Publisher reserves the right to impose a late payment
charge of 2% per month (26.8% per year) from the date
of the first invoice until the date Publisher receives such
amount in full.
(e) Invoiced amounts are payable at Publication’s office
in Canadian funds, or equivalent funds at the rate of
