Canadian Finance for Newcomers Workshop

Welcome to the Canadian Finance for Newcomers Workshop!

This workshop is designed to be suitable for newcomers to Canada who are embarking on a journey to better manage their finances in Canada. Join us for an informative session where you'll learn the essentials of managing your money effectively in Canada as a newcomer. We understand it's overwhelming moving to a new country, and we would like to help you get at least your financial plans sorted out. This workshop will provide you with the tools and knowledge you need to take control of your finances.

Why Attend This Workshop?

At Authentic we believe that everyone should be better equipped with a sound understanding of financial tools and best practices. We often find hard working individuals struggling to make sense of the complex financial jargon and settling for suboptimal financial solutions. This is even more challenging as a newcomer as you might find the new financial system difficult to understand at the onset.

What Value Can You Expect to Get?

• Understanding The Canadian Financial Landscape and Various Account Types
• Choosing between TFSA, RRSP & Other Options
• Q&A Session With Us Discussing Your Unique Circumstances
• Networking Opportunity

Come ready to ask questions, engage with fellow participants, and leave feeling empowered to make smart financial decisions. See you there!
