Meticulous with details, Graeme takes a holistic approach to identifying clients’ needs. He takes the time necessary to provide sound advice that will best serve the unique interests of each individual or business.

A proud father and husband, Graeme enjoys spending as much time as possible with his family, as well as playing hockey and golf with friends.

In 1994, I retired from the RCMP and invested my buyout. My financial advisor retired in 2006 and Graeme Baird became my new advisor. Sometime prior to 2014, I became dissatisfied with the financial advisor for my first wife’s ”investments”. When speaking with Graeme concerning my own investments, he clearly explained another route that I could consider respecting all her investments.  Never once did he try pressuring me to change companies.

When I decided to move my investments to G R Baird Financial, Graeme set up the proper procedures to ensure my beneficiaries would receive maximum benefits upon my death, avoiding probate where possible. My wife moved her RIFs to G R Baird Financial, with no pressure from Graeme, just clear explanations as to how we could proceed. I consider this a testimony to how confident we both are with how all our investments have and are being handled by his company.

Within the past month, I have transferred my five grandchildren’s RESPs, totalling over $350k from my bank to Graeme. Graeme is always a gentleman, with the genuine ability to explain our holdings in such a clear manner to both my wife and I.  As I am challenged both on the computer and in understanding investments, Graeme continues to guide us, never ever, showing any signs of exasperation or impatience.
