Canaccord Genuity Group is a global, full-service investment banking and financial services firm offering a broad range of capital markets and advisory services. Headquartered in Vancouver and London, the firm operates through two primary divisions: Canaccord Genuity, which provides merger and acquisition advisory, equity and debt financing, and strategic advisory services; and Canaccord Genuity Wealth Management, which delivers tailored wealth planning, portfolio management, and estate services to private clients and institutions.
Founded in the mid-20th century as a small brokerage in Canada, the organization expanded its capabilities through strategic acquisitions and organic growth. A pivotal moment came in 2010 with the merger of Canaccord Adams Inc. and Genuity Capital Markets, combining decades of domestic expertise with leading European advisory practices. Over the years, the firm has diversified its offerings to include equity research, sales and trading, and specialty financing solutions across various industries, including technology, healthcare, natural resources, and consumer products.
Canaccord Genuity maintains a presence in key financial centers around the world, including offices in Toronto, New York, London, Hong Kong, and Melbourne. This global footprint enables the firm to serve clients seeking cross-border transactions and access to public and private markets in North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and emerging markets. Dedicated industry teams leverage regional insights and sector expertise to help corporations, institutions, and high-net-worth individuals achieve their strategic and financial objectives.
Under the leadership of Chief Executive Officer Vince Pollaro, who assumed the role in 2020, Canaccord Genuity continues to emphasize a client-centric approach, collaboration, and disciplined risk management. The executive team brings together seasoned professionals with deep industry backgrounds, supporting a culture of innovation and ethical standards. This leadership focus, combined with a commitment to rigorous research and advisory excellence, positions the firm to navigate evolving market conditions and deliver tailored solutions to its diverse client base.
