The McCartney Group of RBC Dominion Securities
Building and Preserving Wealth with Clarity, Discipline, and Purpose

Aligning Wealth With Purpose

Drawing on our extensive experience and unique backgrounds, we serve as trusted stewards for your wealth. Backed by a disciplined investment process and the best-in-class resources of RBC Wealth Management, we foster close relationships with clients and their families – in Oakville and beyond – to help uncover their long-term goals, and craft a plan to achieve them.

What makes our team different?

In an industry where it seems that every financial service provider carries the moniker of “financial planner” or “fiduciary”, the ability to articulate a differentiation is extremely challenging for the wealth management firm, and, even more so, for the potential client, who is placing their financial future in the hands of a financial professional.

Our key differentiators set us apart as we build and protect wealth for medical professionals, business owners, retirees, sudden wealth recipients, and widows, widowers, and divorcees.

Transparency

Clients should understand how much they pay and what they are paying for.

We’re local

Living and working together face to face creates an extra layer of accountability and a sense of family.

Equality

A person’s value is not measured by their net worth. Every client is treated equally with respect and compassion.

Trust

Clients should always expect, and get, the whole truth.

Our top priority is you

Daniel founded The McCartney Group with a simple vision – to create a transparent, respectful wealth management firm that puts your needs first. With the dedicated support of April, he puts that vision into action every single day, working tirelessly to provide the highest level of service imaginable.

Keeping you safely on track and creating an exceptional client experience

Acting as a fiduciary and friend, we take an integrated approach to managing your wealth, ensuring that each and every piece of your financial picture works in harmony with the rest. Our all-encompassing service can be broken down into three core components:

Discover

In order to successfully plan your future, we first have to discover where you currently stand. We’ll conduct a complimentary portfolio review, identifying any gaps and determining how we can best meet your needs – now, and in the future.
