The New Investment Frontier III
Exchange traded funds have been called the next generation of mutual funds. Essentially, ETFs are low cost, tax-efficient index funds that trade on a stock exchange. In 1999, there were 33 ETFs trading on North American stock exchanges with assets of US39.6 billion. Five years later, despite going through the worst equity bear market in 70 years, ETFs number over 300 and assets have soared in excess of US300 billion globally. Canada was home to the first successful ETF in the world. Now the largest Canadian ETF, the i60 Fund, is one of the most heavily traded TSX issues.

The Professional Financial Advisor
The financial services industry is in the midst of a transformation from a commission-based industry to a bona fide profession. A number of changes are accelerating this transformation: an ongoing transition to fee-based advice, a crying need for consumer protection and a growing consensus that credentials and training are required. More change is to come. John J De Goey argues that consumers have grown justifiably sceptical about the motives of their advisors and the firms they work for. Unless additional sweeping changes occur, that lost confidence may never be restored. This book makes complex issues understandable for consumers and simultaneously acts as a wake-up call for less professional advisors to pull up their bootstraps or risk being left behind. De Goey's logic clearly demonstrates that the industry has a lot of explaining to do. Consumers, advisors, the media, regulators and politicians will have a role to play in carving out a better way of delivering competent, credible and independent financial advice in the future.

Superbly written, Bonds for Canadians is both a blueprint for financial prosperity as well as a delightful and often humorous look at the most misunderstood and idiosyncratic of markets. I wish this book had been around 26 years ago when I began my career." ...
Icefall
A suspenseful memoir marked by adventure, hardship, and achievement, Alex Staniforth’s Icefall is the remarkable true story of a teenager’s journey to conquer Mount Everest. Plagued by adversity and epilepsy as a child, Alex developed a determination and will to succeed that would ultimately lead him from his home in Cheshire, England to the face of Everest at only eighteen years old. Though his will to reach the summit was extraordinary, he could have never anticipated the unprecedented dangers and risks that the mountain had in store for him. In this inspirational tale of tragedy and redemption, Alex reveals the universal truth that adversity may be the greatest teacher of all, but nothing can teach you more about life than death.
