Your financial journey is foundational to your life.  You wouldn't be here otherwise.  It's not just about your net worth, investment balance, or spending power.  It's elemental in your ability to live the life you dream of and provide for your family.   It may be one of the most important roads you travel. It deserves care and attention.

01. Your journey matters

WHAT WE KNOW TO BE TRUE

Your financial journey deserves a trusted guide. Someone to act in your best interests. Someone to offer conflict free advice. Someone to provide a map for what lies ahead. Someone to offer practical and emotional support. Not all advisors are created equal. Take your time and do the work to find one best suited for you and your journey.

02. You weren't meant to travel alone

As hard as it is to believe, not all financial advisors are required to act in your best interests. Windermere is proud to be a Registered Investment Advisor (RIA) and is honored to serve as a fiduciary - meaning everything we do is in our clients' best interests. We offer advice and guidance. We do not sell products and do not earn commissions. Our interests are fully aligned with our clients - always. In our opinion, it's an essential component of the financial advisory relationship.

03. Fiduciary standard
is essential

WHAT WE KNOW FOR SURE

Your financial journey is highly personal and specific to you. There is no "one size fits all" approach. We believe in providing highly-customized, high-touch service. We keep our client list small by design. We want to know everything about your situation and walk alongside you throughout your journey.

04. Wealth is personal

WHAT WE KNOW FOR SURE

You've made it this far on your financial journey. Give yourself credit for that. Rest assured, you are capable of far more than you realize. With the right guidance and planning, your goals and dreams are within reach. Keep going. The journey won't be easy but it will be worth it

About Us

Welcome.  I'm Pam Evason, CFA founder and owner of Windermere.  For more information on my academic and professional background, visit here.

I'm one of the fortunate ones - I grew up having ever-present financial guides in my parents.  They taught me key terms and concepts, helped me make decisions are they arose, told me of major items that lay ahead - and did everything in my best interest.  This background led me to a career in accounting and finance. 

In 2010, I was talking with my Dad (Ken Evason, CFA) how there didn't seem to be many firms offering the same level of personalized guidance and direction I had received.  His answer - Let's start one to guide them as we do our own family.  With that, Windermere Wealth Advisors was created.

I look forward to learning more about you and your journey. In the meantime, feel free to learn more about Pam and Ken.

About our Approach

Windermere Wealth Advisors, LLC is a Registered Investment Advisor ("RIA"). We operate under a fiduciary standard, meaning that we are legally required and obligated to act in client's best interests. We wouldn't have it any other way.

In accordance with the fiduciary standard, we are independent. We do not sell products and we are not affiliated with any investment firm. We exist to provide advice and guidance, always putting our clients' interests first.

Our fees are fully transparent. We are paid either as a percent of assets under management or a flat fee, depending on the terms of the client's agreement. That is our only source of revenue. We do not charge commissions.

Both Pam Evason and Ken Evason are Chartered Financial Analyists (CFAs).

You can learn more about the various types of financial advisors and certifications here.

About our Name & Logo

Our company is named after the town of Windermere - an idyllic cottage community in northern Ontario I was blessed to visit most summers of my childhood.

It is peaceful. It is relaxing. It is calm and joy and happiness personified. It embodies all of the emotions I wanted to feel on a daily basis in all aspects of life - including my finances. Knowing that, Windermere seemed like the perfect namesake for our new company.

In Windermere, Adirondak chairs (known as Muskoka chairs in that region) line every dock and beach. They instantly remind me of all the feelings mentioned above. They are also welcoming - inviting you to take a seat and relax. Encouraging you to stay a while and share your unique financial journey with us.

The Roadmap

When clients have a specific question that doesn't fit into ongoing advisory or financial planning, we can often meet their needs with a financial consulting engagement.

Our work together is customized to your specific financial question. Past examples have included review of social security claiming options, financial coaching for children of clients, review of pension annuity options, and assistance reviewing portfolio performance for accounts managed elsewhere.

This service may be right for you if you have a specific financial question but don't have a need or interest in ongoing assistance or a full financial plan
