Harbourfront wealth management  embodies a philosophy of independent and unbiased advice with an unwavering commitment to deliver more financial independence for Canadians.

The firm is also the parent company to a registered securities dealer/investment advisor servicing established advisors and their high net worth clients, an investment fund manager that specializes in managing sub-advised alternative investment funds as well as a US SEC Registered Investment Advisory firm.

In addition to being employee-owned, one of the reasons Harbourfront has enjoyed such a rapid growth rate is its unique business model. In fact, it was one of the first to pioneer a more retail friendly approach to private securities that allows for greater diversification and access for non-accredited investors.

This approach is attracting more and more dealers who are seeking to “hitch their wagons” to the fast-growing Harbourfront. But the CEO is adamant that they’re in it for the long haul and won’t entertain any offers from anyone looking to “pounce” on the firm. “We’re going to be around for a long time and we don’t want to sell this thing for 10 years,” he says.
