What Banks Don’t Want You to Know (CBC Investigation Explained)

Описание: Are Canada’s banks really giving you advice that’s in your best interest—or advice that benefits their bottom line? In this episode of Steadyhand’s Coffee Break series, host David Toyne sits down with Sandi Martin, an advice-only financial planner featured in CBC Marketplace’s hidden camera exposé on Canadian bank advice. Together, they unpack what the CBC investigation uncovered, as well as a new 2025 report from the Ontario Securities Commission (OSC) and the Canadian Investment Regulatory Organization (CIRO).
