How much is a FlexiFonds mutual fund advisor worth?

As an investor, you may be tempted to deviate from your long-term savings objectives. You could, for instance, be seduced by attractive short-term rates or tempted to liquidate everything at the next market tremor. That's where the FlexiFonds team comes in, to help you make decisions that are in your best interest. According to a Quebec study conducted by CIRANO, using financial advice could enable you to accumulate nearly 3 times more savings than if you were to invest on your own for retirement.

Products that are unique on the market

The variation in FlexiFonds funds returns can be explained by looking at the four main components of which they are comprised.

Fonds de solidarité FTQ shares

Their value is published about December 23 and June 23 each year.

Québec stocks

Their value changes every day, depending on the markets.

Global equities

Their value changes every day, depending on the markets.

Fixed income securities

Their value changes every day, depending on the markets.

A two-tiered variation

A portion of the FlexiFonds portfolio varies every day: This includes stocks and bonds, which make up 70% of the funds' mix.

The other portion only changes twice a year: The value of Fonds shares, which make up 30% of the funds, is usually only determined twice a year. This is the only time when they might impact the value of fund units.

How does this two-tiered variation affect your savings?

Daily fluctuations of FlexiFonds funds may be less significant than those of other mutual funds, whereas changes in the value of Fonds FTQ shares in June and December will have a greater impact on their value.

Because Fonds' shares can yield a positive return while the markets are down and vice versa, it's crucial to analyze the performance of FlexiFonds portfolios over time, i.e., over several years.
