ABOUT HAO WU FINANCIAL INC. UNDER THE SUNLIFE BANNER:
Helping Canadians achieve lifetime financial security and live healthier lives.
A holistic and responsible approach for healthy and sustainable finances
What is important for us is to develop a meaningful and lasting relationship with you to accompany you financially at all stages of life. We want to ensure your financial well-being at all stages of your life, both personally – for you and your loved ones – as well as professionally, if you are a business owner or self-employed. As immigrants ourselves arrived in Quebec many years ago, we know the difficulties encountered by newcomers and we enjoy being here to guide them in their integration process, whether it be in French, English or Mandarin. We are a dynamic, experienced and resourceful team that is involved in our community and socially responsible, all while working to reach your goals and ensure your financial security.
WE ARE EXCITED TO PARTNE WITH QUEERTECH:
We are proud members of the LGBTQIA2+ community so we know first-hand that even if the time has changed and the society is progressing, a lot of us don’t feel comfortable talking openly about our personal finances to a professional – because talking about personal finances means talking extensively about our personal lives. Lacking authenticity in these conversations means not getting properly advised, and bad advice/no advice creates significant barriers in achieving your financial goals, and in turn jeopardizing overall well-being.
Queertech’s mission of breaking down barriers and empowering its members with the values of inclusivity, helpfulness, pride, and accessibility deeply resonate with ours, and we are excited to be the partner of choice for helping you achieve financial security and planning for your wealth journeys. We are excited about this partnership because we love what we do, we know that financial planning is an essential skill of life, and we want to share the knowledge with you. We are also excited to break the traditional images of financial planners and advisors and talk to you in a relaxed, modern, and open way.
DIVERSITY, EQUITY, AND INCLUSION MEANS TO US:
“Diversity, Equity and Inclusion” IS our company. Just take look at our team, at the clients we take care of and the ways we are working with them. You will see that these values are not just a motto but a base in which we grew personally and professionally over the years. We help our clients achieve their financial goals and live healthier lives, and to us it also means being allies and cheerleaders in their journeys, no matter where they are and what they are going through.
