Catherine Wood of Qtrade Financial is part of this year's Wealth Professional Canada's Host List.
Qtrade Financial
Wealth management has traditionally not been well regarded for embracing gender diversity in the upper echelons of the industry. That reputation is slowly shifting, thanks to women like Catherine Wood. As Qtrade Financial’s senior vice-president and head of online brokerage, insurance, product and marketing, Wood has been instrumental in the success of the firm’s flagship offering, Qtrade Investor, as well as the launch of the new VirtualWealth robo-advice solution. Her success in this role led to her being named one of Canada’s Most Powerful Women for 2016 by the Women’s Executive Network.
