About us

AltaFina brings together independent, fee-based portfolio managers who share a common investment philosophy and have been serving investors for more than 40 years.

40 years of independence, focused on your best interests

For more than four decades, our mission has remained unchanged: to preserve true independence so we can act exclusively in our clients’ best interests.

Today, the AltaFina teams continue that tradition with a clear priority: helping families build, protect, and preserve their wealth with disciplined advice and long-term perspective.

A structure designed to protect and benefit you

We believe investors are best served through discretionary portfolio management, as it simplifies investment decisions and allows portfolios to be managed more efficiently and consistently. Yet fewer than 5% of licensed investment professionals in Canada are authorized to act as portfolio managers and offer this level of discretionary service. Most of them are affiliated with large financial institutions.

We’ve chosen a different approach:

  • Discretionary portfolio management
  • An independent business model
  • Fee-based compensation
  • No proprietary products
  • No sales quotas
  • No direct or indirect influence on our investment recommendations

This is more than a subtle distinction. It is a fundamental structural difference. Our business model is designed to minimize conflicts of interest and naturally align our interests with yours. It provides the foundation for a long-term relationship built on trust, transparency, and putting your interests first.
