Today’s topic is one that affects many Canadians and equally many of your clients – life after retirement. What exactly is shaping the retiree experience? And how can you better support your clients as they approach this significant chapter in their lives? Joining today's episode is one of the original members of Fidelity Canada’s retirement and research team, Peter Drake. Peter is the former Vice President, Retirement and Economic Research at Fidelity. From the depths of the global financial crisis to the start of the bull run on U.S. equities, he travelled coast to coast speaking to many of you and your clients. Peter has more than 50 years of experience as an economist, including working with the economics department of the TD Bank Financial Group, spending 11 years as a Vice President of the Bank and Deputy Chief Economist. It’s been 10 years since Peter retired from Fidelity in 2015, and he’s come back for a special sit-down interview to share his personal reflections and professional perspectives on life after work.
