Stoney Creek, Ont.-based FirstOntario Credit Union is putting a greater focus on its FirstOntario Investments subsidiary by launching a new website to promote its team of financial advisors.

The aim of the website is to make the credit union’s members, as well as potential clients for FirstOntario Investments, aware of the firm’s services, including investments, retirement and financial planning. The website also offers contact information to its team of Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada-licensed advisors, who cover a wide range of territory in Halton, Hamilton, Niagara and Western Ontario regions.

“We welcome everyone regardless of your portfolio, to connect with us through the website and take advantage of our expertise,” says Ejaz Nadeem, vice president, wealth management, FirstOntario Credit Union and managing director, FirstOntario Investments, in a statement. “The new website highlights our services and directly connects you to our trusted team of advisors who are held to the highest industry standards.”

Visitors to www.FirstOntarioInvestments.com will have access to free interactive assessment tools through which they will be able to get a better understanding of what they need to achieve their goals when it comes to planning for retirement, education and major purchases.

The website will also feature the latest industry news, frequently asked questions, advisor bios and a direct link to online banking services for members of FirstOntario Credit Union, which has 110,000 members and $4.3 billion in assets under management.
