The “Tusk” in our name has a two-part meaning and comes from the love Des and his wife Sarah share of elephants. From early childhood, Des was always fond of elephants and in 2013 got to visit an elephant sanctuary in Thailand. Shortly after Des met Sarah she sponsored an elephant as a birthday gift and before long the name Tusk Financial was born. Elephant tusks are known for two purposes; to protect from their prey and to forage for food. At Tusk Financial we look to protect you and your family using insurance strategies while building value for you with our investment products. Whether you are just starting a family, running a successful business, transitioning within your career or planning for retirement, we can help you achieve your financial goals.
As the world becomes automated, individuals bear a greater share of the risk associated with their financial decisions. Our priority is to educate you while we help you plan for a financially secure retirement. We want to help ensure you leave your family financially prepared if you pass prematurely. We work closely with Clients across Calgary and the surrounding region to set ambitious financial goals and then help accomplish them together.
