Knowledge Bureau president Evelyn Jacks’ presentation started the first day of DAC 2013, the most successful conference in the 10 year history of this exclusive event for Canadian wealth advisors from coast to coast.

Collaborative decision-making was the name of the game for Day 2 of DAC 2013 in Ojai, California.

Collaborative wealth management — Reaching Higher for Bigger Successes — was the theme for the final day of DAC 2013. The day started with a grim picture of aging demographics.
