Senior Investment Advisor
Henrik spent fifteen years at a major Canadian bank before realizing most retail investors were getting generic advice. He started Qrestex to share the strategies that actually work for regular people trying to build retirement funds.
Most investment content either oversimplifies everything or drowns you in jargon. We try to find the middle ground. Henrik believes you need to understand why certain strategies work before you can apply them to your own situation.
Our teaching style is straightforward. We walk through real portfolio examples, explain the reasoning behind allocation decisions, and show you how different market conditions affect various investment types. You'll see actual tax scenarios for Canadian investors, not theoretical examples that don't apply here.
What sets our approach apart is the focus on decision-making frameworks rather than hot tips. You learn how to evaluate investments yourself, which matters more than memorizing rules that might not fit your circumstances.
