Investment Planning for Canadian Expats in the UAE
Investing as a Canadian expat isn’t just about chasing returns—it’s about clarity, structure, and purpose. Whether you’re saving for retirement, building wealth, or looking for daily income, your investment plan should reflect your life goals and cross-border needs. At Bassem Fawzy Wealth Advisory, we work with Canadian expats across the UAE to build personalized, globally diversified, and tax-conscious strategies that grow with you—wherever life leads.

Why You Need an Investment Plan as an Expat
Living in the UAE means high earning potential and no income tax. But without a clear investment plan, many expats still fail to build long-term wealth. Here’s why:
-
No pension or government safety net in the UAE
-
Cross-border tax exposure when repatriating
-
Currency mismatch across savings and liabilities
-
Unclear exit strategy or inconsistent investing
With the right investment plan, you gain clarity, reduce risk, and give every dollar a direction.
Tailored Strategies for Every Stage of Life

Build a Retirement Investment Plan that Lasts
Your retirement investment plan isn’t about saving more—it’s about investing better.
We help Canadian expats structure portfolios that:
-
Grow tax-efficiently while you're abroad
-
Convert into sustainable income later
-
Coordinate with RRSPs, offshore savings, and pensions
-
Adjust to changing markets, inflation, and medical needs
A strong retirement investment plan allows you to retire confidently—whether in Canada, the UAE, or somewhere in between.
Not Just Any Investment Plan—Your Plan
In Canada, the government takes your taxes before you spend. In the UAE, you must decide who gets paid first. A smart automatic savings plan makes that decision for you—ensuring your financial future is always at the top of the list.
We don’t push products. We build investment plans that are:

​Purpose-built ​
-

-
Diversified and liquid
-
Aligned with your retirement, income, and wealth-building goals
