The Optimize Private Client Program

A family office experience — for every client. In partnership with Optimize Wealth Management, we deliver integrated investments, planning, tax, estate and insurance services under one roof.

A new chapter for our clients

Elevated service. Deeper expertise. The same trusted team.

Thompson & Pollock Wealth is proud to offer investments in partnership with Optimize Wealth Management — a people-driven, values-based, future-focused firm that takes a holistic approach to every client's financial life.

Through the Optimize Private Client Program, you gain access to something rare: a true family office experience that historically has been reserved for high-net-worth households. With us, every client receives the same comprehensive suite of services — not just the wealthiest few.

The Optimize Family Office Services Program

Four integrated pillars — included for every client

Most wealth firms hand you an investment account. We hand you a fully integrated financial life — built around your goals and monitored as those goals change.

Comprehensive Financial Planning

We design a concrete, prioritized plan that connects your goals, time horizon and tolerance for risk — then monitor and adjust it as your life evolves. Six clear steps: establish goals, develop the plan, evaluate progress, examine assets, implement, and review.

Personal Tax Preparation

Innovative tax preparation built around your situation — whether you're a commissioned salesperson, employee, executive, owner of rental properties, or an incorporated business owner. We look beyond T4s to capture every available credit, deduction, RRSP/TFSA optimization, income-splitting opportunity and corporate-class strategy so you keep more of what you earn — every single year, not just the year you start working with us.

Will Drafting & Updates — Included at No Additional Charge

We draft and execute your personal will as part of the program — and we update it as your life changes (new child, new property, new business, marriage, divorce, a death in the family) at no additional charge. The goal is straightforward: minimize probate fees and taxes for your beneficiaries, ensure your estate is distributed exactly the way you intend, and make sure your will is never the 12-year-old document that nobody remembered to revisit. Most clients also leave with primary and secondary wills (where applicable), Powers of Attorney for property and personal care, and a clear beneficiary strategy across registered accounts and insurance.

Insurance Services

Life, critical illness, disability and corporately owned insurance solutions integrated directly with your wealth strategy — designed to seek both the growth and the protection of your money and your family's financial future. Because the insurance, investment and estate work all happen under one roof, the strategies actually line up.

Why this changes everything

What makes us different from the competition

    Dedicated account servicing, proactive reviews and a single point of contact for the moving pieces of your financial life — at no additional charge.

    Institutional-Grade Portfolio Management

    Access to the same pension-style asset classes, private investment strategies and disciplined research process that institutional investors rely on — wrapped inside a personal, plan-driven experience.
