IGM Financial Inc. traces its origins to the early 20th century with the founding of Investors Group in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Over subsequent decades, the company expanded its reach through strategic acquisitions, most notably the integration of Mackenzie Financial in the late 1990s. In 1996, IGM Financial was established as a publicly traded entity under the umbrella of Power Corporation of Canada, marking a new chapter in its evolution as a diversified financial services provider.
Today, IGM Financial operates two primary businesses: wealth and asset management. Through its IG Wealth Management arm, the company delivers financial planning, insurance products and proprietary investment solutions to individual investors and professional advisors across Canada. Mackenzie Investments, the asset management division, offers a broad suite of mutual funds, exchange-traded funds and segregated funds, serving retail and institutional clients with domestic and global equity, fixed-income and alternative strategies.
While its core market is Canada, IGM Financial maintains a presence in select international markets via Mackenzie’s cross-border distribution agreements and partnerships. The company’s network spans coast-to-coast offices in major Canadian financial centres and a growing digital platform that supports remote client engagement. This geographic diversification allows IGM to leverage regional market expertise while benefiting from global investment insights.
Governance and oversight rest with an experienced Board of Directors and a senior executive team committed to prudent risk management and client-centric innovation. Under the leadership of its President and Chief Executive Officer, supported by dedicated heads of wealth management, asset management and corporate functions, IGM Financial continues to pursue long-term growth by aligning its strategy with evolving investor needs and industry trends.
