Our Story
Aviso Wealth is a national, integrated financial services company serving the wealth management needs of virtually all of Canada’s credit unions as well as a range of independent financial organizations. We provide comprehensive services and solutions that empower Canadians to achieve financial well-being, and allow our partners to offer an outstanding wealth management experience to their members and clients.
Aviso is a new company, but one with decades of experience, and notable strengths in all areas of wealth management. It unites the talents and resources of three successful, industry-leading firms:
All three firms were owned by one or more of Canada’s main cooperative financial organizations: the Credit Union Centrals, The Co-operators (through its subsidiary CUMIS) and Desjardins. The owners identified a compelling business case for joining forces. As one of Canada’s largest independent financial services providers, the combined organization would have greater resources to invest in new and better products, services, technology, and support. It could provide more value to Canadians, and do more to help partners compete and thrive in a rapidly changing environment.
The intent to create Aviso Wealth was announced in December 2017. The agreement was finalized on March 31, 2018.
