Protecting Your Assets
Tulett, Matthews & Associates is an independent investment counselor. We do not hold assets for our clients. Tulett, Matthews & Associates exercises limited trading authorization over your account as per an agreed upon investment policy statement and account agreement.
Your account is held at TD Waterhouse Canada Inc. (the "custodian") in your name only. Administration of your account is performed by TD Waterhouse Institutional Services Inc., a division of TD Waterhouse Canada Inc. Any disbursements from that account may only be made to you at your address of record, or your bank account.
You will receive trade confirmations and statements detailing each purchase, sale, or disbursement and a consolidated tax report at year end. The custodian provides an electronic link and other back office support to Tulett, Matthews & Associates which allows us to direct and monitor your account on a daily basis.
We are not employees of the custodian, and receive no compensation from them for placing trades through them. We are free to select any brokerage house or trust company to provide custody for your account. We chose our custodians based on the best combination of services, trade execution costs, as well as their financial strength. You never have to worry about the financial integrity of our custodian.
