What to know about Financial advisors
The Financial Consumer Agency of Canada describes financial advisor as a general term for someone who helps you manage your money. That breadth is the reason the search is confusing: the same two words are used by a branch representative at a bank, a mutual fund dealing representative, an insurance agent, a portfolio manager and people who are none of those things. What matters is not the word on the business card but what the person is registered to do and who supervises them.
