TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Canadian Securities Institute (CSI), a Moody's Analytics company, is proud to extend its support of Financial Literacy Month with dedicated resources free to all Canadians.

"Through our series of four free webinars, we are helping Canadians achieve greater financial resilience and navigate the evolving financial landscape with confidence," said Marie Muldowney, Managing Director at CSI.

"Retiring Canadians have worked a lifetime to build their net worth, and some are set to be part of the largest wealth transfer in our history,” said Julie Seberras, Senior Manager, Wealth Planning Support at TD Wealth and wealth transfer webinar panelist. “You want to protect what matters most and leave a legacy that reflects your unique circumstances and values.”

Reflecting on women’s finances, Neela White, Portfolio Manager at Raymond James and a webinar panelist, said, "While women are taking care of everyone else, I’m concerned about them planning for their own financial longevity and vitality.
