On this week’s episode of More Than Money, Leanna Wachniak and Rob Gerrie discuss the economic fallout from the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, including rising oil prices, higher travel costs, and what it could mean for your retirement plan.
Next, they are joined by Brian D’Costa, Founding Partner and Chief Strategy & Risk Officer at Algonquin Capital, to examine why markets are becoming more cautious about growth and why investors are increasingly turning to the relative safety of bonds.
Then, Leanna and Rob sit down with Duane Bratt, Professor of Political Science in the Department of Economics, Justice, and Policy Studies at Mount Royal University, to discuss how CUSMA negotiations may seem distant but can quietly affect your retirement through taxes, travel, currency, and even real estate.
To close the show, Leanna and Rob break down the financial implications of moving to another province in retirement and the key factors you need to consider before making that decision.
