The firm's expansion is driven by a seasoned team of wealth professionals
Demand from institutional investors has prompted the latest expansion for CIBC Mellon.
The firm’s Quebec operation will be enhanced with a team of seasoned bilingual investment professionals led by Michael Graham and including Millia DeQuartel as relationship executive and Mariem Zitoun as service director.
"Quebec is home to some of the most innovative investment firms in the world, who continue to turn to CIBC Mellon for collaborative enablement as they modernize and transform their investment operations," said Michael Graham. "We are investing in our team in Quebec because we see an opportunity to build with our clients and to access the innovative digital and financial talent in the region – as well as to meet the rising appetite for sophisticated francophone investment operations expertise to support clients across Canada in their preferred language."
The dedicated Quebec team also sees Marie-France Blais join the company as relationship executive, bringing more than 20 years of experience servicing Quebec-based institutional investors.
More hires
This is not the end of the hires in the province though, as the firm plans to recruit more bilingual professionals to its team to meet increasing demand now and in the future.
Richard Anton, CIBC Mellon’s chief operations officer, says the firm’s success combines global scale and technology with on-the-ground expertise.
"Home to an array of local organizations with strong growth trajectories, as well as a growing density of digital and technology talent, we see Quebec as a key strategic growth area for CIBC Mellon. We look forward to building in collaboration with our local clients."
