With an overall rating of 9.6, Wellington-Altus’ result underscores its unwavering advisor-focused approach and entrepreneurial business model. Recently surpassing $30 billion in assets under administration (AUA) in just seven years, the firm has secured its place as one of Canada’s fastest-growing wealth management firms.

This approach has made us a leading destination for top advisors and their practices, and Wellington-Altus’ domination of the Brokerage Report Card for the past five years reflects this.”

“We know that as client needs grow increasingly more complex, the demand for innovative and top-tier solutions continues to rise—and Wellington-Altus is uniquely equipped to support its current and future advisors in meeting those challenges, and we are excited to accelerate our efforts,” added Shaun.

The 2024 Brokerage Report Card, conducted by industry publication Investment Executive, measures Canada’s top investment dealers based on various criteria that are rated by a firm’s own advisors.

Wellington-Altus excelled in all 27 categories, leading in 24, including receptiveness to advisor feedback, products and support for high-net-worth clients, financial planning support and technology, business development and marketing support, and remote system access and transactions.

“Results from the 2024 Brokerage Report Card confirm that Wellington-Altus advisors are feeling supported and valued as partners in the firm and are in sync with its strategy to revolutionize wealth management in Canada,” said Charlie Spiring, Founder & Chair of Wellington-Altus Financial Inc. “Receiving such high praise from our people is deeply meaningful and propels us even further toward our goals, which include reaching $50 billion AUA.”

The firm also received top marks for its overall culture, with the highest rating for its leadership team and strategic focus. It also maintained a perfect and unmatched net promoter score of 100.
