CIBC Wood Gundy Senior Wealth Advisor Sugi Kumaresan and his team make high-net-worth money management stress-free.

A comfortable future begins with financial security. Sugi Kumaresan and his team at CIBC Wood Gundy possess several decades of financial experience and are changing the narrative of how to effectively grow your wealth.

Sugi and his team use a comprehensive approach to help manage, build, and protect their clients’ wealth.

Along with Sugi, Associate Wealth Advisor Michelle Rowe, Wealth Advisor Paul Mannu, and Client Associate Angela Diamanti pride themselves on their affluent client base, team chemistry, bespoke investment advice and portfolio construction.

“We have always lived by pride, leadership, and joy. We are proud of the work we do – everyone on the team is a leader and we have fun doing it,” says Sugi.

Paul adds, “As a team, we are very cohesive because there is no overlap with what we do. We all stick to our strengths and each of us brings out our best.”

Their clients continue to rely on them because of their unwavering commitment to their three-pillar investment philosophy of helping to grow assets: strategic asset allocation, a disciplined investment approach and conservative, tax-efficient income strategies.

They stress that building a well-rounded and diversified portfolio with patience is key. By combining equities, fixed income and alternatives in different ways, each portfolio strategy they offer is unique.

Tactical asset allocation, active versus passive investing and portfolio rebalancing are other strategies in their arsenal that consistently show their clients that their portfolios are adaptable to market conditions.

Investing is not a race, and their patience has been proven to optimize their clients’ portfolio performance over time. How so? Because a client’s long-term goals are aligned with meaningful investments to achieve results.

You can strive to meet your financial goals with their innovative solutions because they are designed to meet your specific needs.
