About Eddy Wealth

We were among the first in Canada to manage client portfolios with factor funds. Two decades later, that experience led to a harder conclusion: returns alone do not tell retirees what they need to know.

Origin

Two decades of factor investing led to a different question.

We built and traded some of the most sophisticated factor ETF strategies in the Canadian market. That gave us something most advisors do not have: firsthand data on what works, what breaks, and how long recovery actually takes.

The pivot was simple, even if the implications were not. A fund can beat its benchmark and still leave a retiree short if the timing is wrong. That is why Eddy Wealth now leads with time.

The pivot

Navette OS answers the question returns cannot: how long until you are back on track, and how long is your spouse exposed if you are not there?

The name

The eddy is a place of calm in turbulent water.

That is more than a metaphor. Navette OS is the instrument that measures how close to calm a family actually is. When the recovery horizon is short, they are in the eddy. When it stretches, Eddy Wealth sees it before the family feels it and acts accordingly.

The brand promise is not bravado. It is composure backed by measurement.

The RRH and SRH frameworks have been independently validated by academic reviewers, mathematicians, and leading quantitative researchers. The methodology is proprietary to Eddy Wealth Inc. We share the diagnostic. Not the recipe.

Other advisors measure performance. Eddy Wealth measures time.
