www.insideHALTON.com | OAKVILLE BEAVER | Thursday, March 26, 2015 | 18 Research shows many avoid seeking nancial advice A recent national survey provides both answers and questions about the ability of Canadians to manage their personal nances. In February, CIBC released the results of a survey completed by 1,510 randomly selected Canadian adults. Three responses provide some insight to the nancial issues facing many of us. Fifty-three per cent think that nancial decisions are more complicated than they were 20 years ago. That is very understandable, since the world has become more complicated. Fifty-two per cent say they have insuf cient knowledge to make nancial decisions and therefore have struggled when required to do so. Guest Contributor Sixty-six per cent said they could bene t from receiving nancial advice. That seems logical. Financial decisions are more dif cult and Dollars & Sense Peter Watson is of a real value. However, the next response raises a signi - people don't have sufcient knowledge to make those decisions. Of course, many people will want nancial advice. The answer to how Canadians think about making nancial decisions does provide some insight. In this regard, the CIBC research cant question. That is the giant elephant in the room. Only 38 per cent of Canadians are planning to meet with a nancial advisor this year. That begs the question of why. If 66 per cent say they could bene t from nancial advice, why would only 38 per cent follow through and seek out an advisor? On the surface, it makes no sense. It does not take much time and effort to arrange to speak with a nancial advisor and most Canadians would bene t from making good nancial decisions.
