Nine wealth firms show commitment to advisor empowerment through culture, technology, and more
After an exhaustive search, Wealth Professional is proud to announce its 5-Star Brokerages for 2023.
With their multi-provincial footprints, expertise spanning multiple areas, and differentiated offerings, this year’s top brokerages have shown their commitment to empowering advisors and providing the best service possible to Canadians as they navigate their financial journeys.
Every single one of Wealth Professional’s 2023 5-Star Brokerages is pushing the envelope in its own way. Whether it’s through industry-leading strategic partnerships, tech modernization programs, or broadening their arsenal of investment options, they’re making sure advisors have the tools and infrastructure needed to advance their clients’ financial objectives.
From a practice management standpoint, these nine firms are also actively seeking opportunities to help their advisors transform their business, manage change, and optimize their business processes to grow and future-proof their practices.
Among this year’s luminaries is Edward Jones Canada, a mainstay 5-Star Brokerage since the list’s inception. With 2,300 advisors, branch staff, and employees under its umbrella, the firm has consistently demonstrated a commitment to creating the conditions necessary for advisors to serve their clients.
Moira Klein-Swormink, principal, Wealth Management Advice and Solutions, highlighted her firm’s fierce commitment to a strong corporate culture, diversity and inclusion, training, technology, and compliance as a 5-star brokerage.
“We created a technology modernization roadmap that lays out a three- to five-year plan with significant technological upgrades or additions,” Klein-Swormink says.
“We have built out our team … as we continue to advance in technology,” she adds. “When you marry the two together, we’re able to provide that really customized experience.”
