Coreen T. Sol, CFA, has been professionally managing investment assets since 1992. Her approach to investing stems from her research and practice in limiting the effect of natural decision biases in financial choices. She also lectured at UBC Okanagan as an adjunct professor in behavioural finance. In addition, she has written two books. Practically Investing, Smart Investment Techniques Your Neighbour Doesn't Know was self-published in 2014 as an essential tool for Canadian investors. In late 2022, Wiley and Sons will be publishing her new work, Unbiased Investor: Reduce Financial Stress and Keep More of Your Money. This book provides strategic habits you can adopt to limit bias during financial choices.
Coreen has three grown children. In her leisure time, she enjoys many of the Okanagan golf courses, cycling the hills of Vancouver, yoga practice, and local mountain snow sports.
Having enjoyed a professional dance career with Ballet B.C., Coreen feels passionate about supporting the community and arts in particular. She proudly contributes to Ballet B.C., Ballet Kelowna, the Vancouver Art Gallery, CIBC Run for the Cure, and other vital organizations.
