Global Securities Common Stock and Fixed Income Products

Capitalize on market swings and income streams.
Equity & Fixed Income Securities are traditionally divided into two subsets, equities and debt securities. Equities refer to shares of a company, while debt securities consist of debentures, bonds, deposits, notes and commercial papers. While equities are directly linked to the performance of a company and can fluctuate accordingly, debt securities are fixed term and entitle the holder to receive the principal at the end of the term, plus interest over the term.
Accordingly, Global Securities Corporation has established links with all major world markets, allowing clients to buy or sell both equity and debt securities quickly and efficiently. Speed in executing client instructions is a top priority for Global’s team of Traders and Investment Advisors. Our electronic trading platform facilitates instantaneous order routing to all North American market exchanges. Moreover, our experienced Bond Desk accesses the over-the-counter market to obtain a wide variety of debt securities, both domestically and internationally. We can also purchase an array of exchange-traded mutual funds for our clients.

Mutual Funds at Global
Mutual funds are professionally managed funds that allow investors to pool their money and invest in a variety of securities to obtain diversification. Global Securities is an agent for mutual fund companies including, but not limited to: Fidelity, AIM Trimark, CI, Mackenzie, AGF and Sentry Select.
Global’s association with FundServ allows for timely subscriptions and redemptions for the majority of domestic mutual funds. Switches within a family of funds, or between unrelated funds are quick and simple.
Flow-Through Shares at Global
Flow-through shares are shares issued by oil and mining exploration companies that pass tax advantages onto these shareholders, as the entire amount invested can be claimed against your income. While flow-through shares are most effective for those in the higher tax brackets, anyone can take advantage of tax credits associated with buying eligible shares. The tax break however, does come with risk as the industry can be highly volatile and shares often cannot be sold for a certain time period.
Super flow-through shares are shares offered through junior mining companies conducting grassroots exploration in British Columbia. These shares may be eligible for an additional 15% federal tax.
It is recommended that for both flow-through and super flow-through shares you contact an Investment Advisor who can guide you with this investment.
Managed Accounts at Global
The investment environment is currently difficult to navigate. Higher volatility and many new products make it mandatory to closely monitor market conditions and analyze their impact in a timely way.
As a successful individual, you probably do not have sufficient time to manage your investment portfolios. However, positioning your portfolios to adapt to changing market conditions and take advantage of investment opportunities is a critical element in protecting and increasing your net worth.
This is where Global Securities’ Portfolio Managers come in. Our Portfolio Managers have the optimal combination of experience and education required to manage your investment portfolios professionally and prudently.
When opening up a managed account you will be hiring Global to build a portfolio to meet your needs. Global’s Portfolio Managers will work directly with you through each part of the investment process. We spend time with each client establishing an appropriate strategy based on your personal circumstances and then implement that strategy. Based on your goals we will select and purchase the appropriate securities on your behalf. Unlike many other programs, your funds at Global will not necessarily be invested all at once but in accordance with your managed account strategy. Additionally, we assume daily investment monitoring and automatically make changes to the portfolio as needed.
A managed account enables investors to focus on what they regard as the important parts of their lives. Clients are made aware of all transactions that occur in their accounts in a timely fashion. Using Global’s on-line trade confirmation and statement system, a client can receive their trade confirmations and monthly statements much more quickly as compared to the traditional mail procedure. Additionally, managed account clients have direct access to the Portfolio Managers to answer their questions.
For the busy investor a managed account enables you to make your portfolio more responsive to your needs. For investors with limited investment knowledge, you can feel confident that your portfolio will be suitable for you thus eliminating the fear and anxiety that may be associated with making investment decisions.
