Who we are

Not a bank. Not a call centre. Your neighbours.

We're independent, which means we work for you — not for a bank. Our recommendations are based on what's right for your situation, not what earns us the biggest commission.

Client stories

Hear from people like you

After 25 years contributing to PEPP, I had no idea how much I was leaving on the table. Bryan walked me through everything and now I'm retiring two years earlier than I thought possible.

I was paying my bank for advice I could have gotten from a pamphlet. 20Twenty actually sat down, looked at my whole picture, and built a plan that made sense for my family.

The Market Shield strategy gave us real peace of mind heading into retirement. We don't lose sleep over market crashes anymore. That alone was worth the conversation.

Our story

Built in Saskatchewan, for Saskatchewan

20Twenty Wealth Management was founded in 2016 with a clear mission: bring independent, expert financial advice to people who've been underserved by the big banks. We saw too many hard-working government employees getting generic advice from advisors who didn't understand their pension plans.

So we specialized. Today, the vast majority of our clients are Saskatchewan public sector employees — people who contribute to the province's pension plan and want to know their retirement is protected. We understand these plans inside and out because it's all we do.

[ New team photo — Regina office ]
Our approach

Relationship-first. Always.

We don't have asset minimums. We don't rotate advisors. When you call our office, Tanya knows your name. When you sit down for a review, Bryan or Jodi already knows what's changed in your life since last time.

Our advice is independent — we're not tied to any single product shelf. That means our recommendations are based on what's right for your family, full stop.

[ Photo — Bryan or Jodi in consultation ]
Why independent advice matters

We work for you, not a bank

Walk into a bank branch with less than $250,000 and you're stuck with a "Personal Financial Services Representative" who exists to sell you their products — their funds, their credit lines, their insurance. You'll be lucky to see the same person twice.

At 20Twenty, it doesn't matter if you have $50,000 or $5 million. You get the same team, the same expertise, and advice that's built around your goals — not a product quota.

The pension challenge

Your pension is powerful — if you use it right

PEPP is one of the best defined-contribution pension plans in Canada. But most members don't optimize it. They don't maximize employer matching, they don't coordinate it with their other investments, and they don't have a strategy for drawing it down in retirement.

That's where we come in. A vast percentage of our clients work for the provincial government and crown corporations. Over the years, we've become experts in structuring these plans for retirement income.

[ Infographic — Pension optimization process ]
How we help

Our pension approach

  • Portfolio structuring starting 5+ years before retirement
  • Market Shield protection against downturns like 2008
  • Maximizing employer matching contributions
  • Coordinating your pension with RRSP, TFSA, and open accounts
  • Spousal income splitting strategies for tax optimization
  • Guaranteed original investment at retirement strategies
Market Shield

Never worry about another 2008

The 2008 recession erased up to 40% of some retirement portfolios overnight. Our Market Shield strategy ensures that never happens to you.

Starting as early as five years before retirement, we structure your portfolio to guard against downturns while still profiting from market upswings. We can even guarantee your original investment at retirement.

How Market Shield works

We gradually shift your portfolio from growth-focused to protection-focused as you approach retirement. Think of it as a financial seatbelt — you barely notice it until you need it, and then it saves everything.

The questions that keep you up at night

When should I start taking CPP? How do I draw income without running out? Am I paying more tax than I need to? Will my money last 30 years?

These are the questions we answer every day. An effective retirement income plan addresses your changing needs throughout retirement — from the active early years to the slower-paced later years.

[ Illustration — retirement income timeline ]

What we cover

  • Tax-efficient retirement income strategies across all account types
  • CPP timing decisions — when to start drawing at 60, 65, or 70
  • Structuring RRSP, TFSA, and open account withdrawals for minimal tax
  • OAS considerations and clawback avoidance strategies
  • Ongoing annual review process to adapt to your changing needs
  • Spousal coordination for household-level tax optimization

Let's build your retirement income plan

Whether you're five years out or already retired, it's never too late to optimize.

Saskatchewan's inheritance "fee" is really a tax

The Saskatchewan government calls it a probate fee. It's not. It's an inheritance tax. Upon death, a "probated" copy of a will is usually required. Tax and legal fees applied to the estate value can amount to over 10% of everything you've built.

We have strategies that bypass probate entirely. Capital assets can bypass the estate and go directly to your beneficiaries — saving thousands in unnecessary taxation and fees.

Succession planning for every situation

  • Personal estate planning and probate bypass strategies
  • Farm succession planning — keeping the land in the family
  • Business succession planning and ownership transition
  • Beneficiary designation optimization for capital assets
  • Strategies to reduce inheritance taxes and legal fees

Protect what you've built

Don't let probate fees erode your legacy. Let's talk about how to keep your wealth where it belongs.

Investment protection

Market Shield

Market crashes are inevitable. Your retirement doesn't have to be a casualty. Market Shield is our strategy for protecting your portfolio from significant downturns as you approach and enter retirement.

We structure your investments to capture market gains while limiting your exposure to catastrophic loss. It's not about timing the market — it's about building a portfolio that can weather any storm.

[ Chart — Market Shield performance illustration ]
Income protection

Income Shield

What's the bigger risk — a market crash or a catastrophic health event? The statistics are compelling: a critical illness can devastate a family's finances faster than any market downturn.

Income Shield covers disability insurance, critical illness protection, and life insurance — ensuring that if life throws its worst at you, your family's financial plan stays intact.
