Halifax financial advisors and financial planners for complex financial decisions
You can own companies, invest in real estate, and hold significant corporate and personal wealth and still face important questions about what should happen next.
We help you make sense of your options and move forward with a plan that fits your life and goals.
Based in Halifax and working with clients across Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and Alberta, Matt Nason & Brian Rose Wealth Management help business owners make informed decisions around wealth, tax, retirement, succession, and long-term planning.
Helping you make sense of what comes next
We translate complexity into clear direction. That means helping you see your options, understand the trade-offs, and make decisions with your full financial picture in view.
When business conditions or personal priorities shift, your plan can shift with them, without losing sight of the bigger picture.
Accounting-level rigour behind every recommendation
Brian Rose’s background as a former accountant shapes how your plan is built from the start: with accurate inputs, realistic assumptions, and a clear understanding of tax.
We model important decisions before you make them, including retirement timing, income strategies, and business transitions, so you can move forward with better visibility and stronger planning.
Step-by-step guidance
We walk you through every part of your plan. We test scenarios, explain the trade-offs, and answer the real questions behind every fact and every figure.
The goal is not only for you to understand the plan, but to trust how it was built and why each step matters.

What our clients say
Previously when I sat with other advisors from my bank and my pension company, I walked out with lots of paper work and a feeling of "well, that was useless." Finally, I thought I have to get a handle on my retirement and made an appointment with Matt's team. I sent them all my information and after a couple of meetings (as he knew I was needing some hand holding), I now understand and feel confident I am on track to retire comfortably all thanks to them.

I have been with IG Wealth Management for approximately 10 years. Matt has been very helpful in explaining my financial/investment options. He always listens carefully and is responsive to my questions and concerns. I have recently lost my spouse and Matt has been thoughtful and caring as he guides me through the financial challenges faced by a single senior.

IG Wealth Management has been one of the best decisions my wife and I could have ever made. After floundering and quite literally drowning in mainstream banking investment services, we realized we desperately needed help solving the mysteries of LIFs, RIFs, TFSAs, RRSPs, etc., as we were both approaching potential retirement and an age where such decisions become crucial to the well being of your future. After watching one short webinar, we were convinced these people were the ones to guide us in those very crucial decisions. After hooking up with our point contacts, Mr. Ken Nason and Mr. Brian Rose, we have not looked back. These gentlemen quickly diagnosed our situation, put together a portfolio and have constantly guided us in making those critical decisions to maximize our retirement savings and being able to move forward with an investment profile that was worry free and completely understandable. I’ve had to call on them several times over the past couple of years for CRA issues and investment questions and have never been disappointed. They respond in a timely, professional and down to earth fashion and completely take away the stress related to making any sort of future investments/TFSA deposits, etc. I would highly recommend IG Wealth Management to any of my family and friends without hesitation. Thank you Ken and Brian for being part of our investment journey! Thumbs up and five stars!

Everyone knows you need to save money for retirement, but do you have a plan? For most people, creating and revisiting a financial plan is on their “to do list." We appreciated how Ken and Brian made it easy to develop a comprehensive, lifelong plan and more importantly, ensuring we all revisit the deliverables on a regular basis as our life situation changes.

The hardest part about getting ready for retirement is creating a financial plan you can be confident will allow you to retire in comfort while being able to weather the uncertainties of the future. In the financial planning world of “we don’t know what we don’t know," Ken and Brian have really helped us to "know what we need to know." IG Wealth Management provides a “one-stop shop” with a competitive family of investment funds and financial planning services and tools. We sleep well at night knowing that our retirement plan is in good hands.
