Barry Soper, Certified Financial Planner, and licensed financial advisor since 1998, is a seasoned professional with 25 prior years of experience in business, mortgages, real estate investment and development, giving him the depth of knowledge and life experience needed to help his clients achieve financial security - For Life.

Since 1996, I have owned a financial advisory practice providing education and empowering my clients to make smart, informed decisions about their money.

I believe that an educated client is a satisfied client and that financial success is a matter of choice, not chance.  I love to help people make informed financial choices to develop a strategic plan so that they can turn their dreams into reality.

Life changes such as divorce, death or retirement can be very stressful and the financial industry can be overwhelming and confusing.  I help people make informed decisions when it comes to taxation, savings, investments, education and estate and succession planning.  I can help to ensure your estate is well prepared.

Staying current with all aspects of investment and financial planning is very important to me.  As a testament to this I have earned my Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) and Certified Financial Planner (CFP) designations to ensure I provide the highest quality of advice across a wide range of topics.

My client are always impressed with my responsiveness - to connect with me please email me at gpspangaro@ipcsecurities.com or call me at 905.469.2404.

I am a born and raised Calgarian with strong roots in both Calgary and Banff. I am very proud of my family who instilled the value of "if you are going to do something do it right, and put in 100% effort".

This core belief has helped me in many aspects of my life and is what I believe to be my biggest strength for being able to achieve my goals as an Edward Jones advisor. My primary goal is to be an integral part of my client’s lives and to be a trusted resource to help them achieve their goals, whether it be sending a child to university, buying a new home, or a dream vacation and of course living their best retirement life. I am always excited to watch as my clients achieve a milestone which they may have thought previously unattainable.

My move to the Edward Jones team has been the best thing I have done for my clients in order to better serve them towards reaching their financial dreams. With my Branch Office Administrator, Meeka Haller, our goal is to provide the highest level of service possible, by being available to meet or answer questions in a timely manner. It is our mission to have a positive impact and deepen the relationships with our clients at every opportunity.

My team and I look at each investor’s needs and develop unique and proven strategies to meet those needs. We strive to keep everyone on track by partnering with our clients, listening to them and monitoring their investments for maximum success.

On a personal note, I am married to the most amazing person I know. We love to travel and see and experience different places to appreciate the beauty and differences all over the world. I like to get out and golf as much as possible although practice does not always make perfect! When on the golf course, I can enjoy the beauty of the area which I call home, and allows me to spend quality time with friends and family.
