As an independent consulting firm with a portfolio of financial solutions tailored to the needs of business owners and incorporated professionals, we’ll help you plan for a financially secure retirement.
Contact UsAn Individual Pension Plan (IPP) is a defined benefit pension plan that allows you to increase your tax deferred retirement savings and establish long-term financial security.
Ideal for high-income earners ($150,000+) such as business owners, athletes, executives, and incorporated professionals who wish to sustain their standard of living into retirement, a Retirement Compensation Arrangement (RCA) represents the highest level of retirement program available in Canada.
Many corporations provide their employees’ retirement benefits through a defined benefit pension plan. GBL can provide plan sponsors with a wide range of the necessary actuarial services with respect to these DB pension plans, including:
A Health Benefit Plan (HBP) offers incorporated professionals and business owners a reliable and economical way to provide expanded medical and dental coverage for themselves, their families, and certain employees.
Our Health Spending Account (HSA) offers business owners and their employees a tax effective tool to provide expanded medical and dental coverage at a lower cost than traditional HSA platforms.
The Fair Market Valuation (FMV) of a life insurance policy can be used for the purposes of valuing policies transferred from corporately owned to personal, for valuing a corporation’s shares, for divorce calculations for marital property, and for charitable giving.
GBL is a recognized leader in FMVs and can help determine the true value of your insurance policy.

The valuation of a Critical Illness (CI) policy provides the market value of the policy at a specified date. CI valuations are done for the purposes of valuing policies transferred from corporately owned to personal, for valuing a corporation’s shares, or for divorce calculations for marital property.
If you or your client owns a foreign insurance product, the taxation of this policy may fall under different taxation and rules than the policy was designed to follow. At GBL, we are able to analyze and test the policy under the applicable taxation rules to ensure proper tax planning and reporting.
