Stuart J.

Concurrent to academic accreditations in Marketing and Economics (BA), I began my career in sales and advertising working for an Event Marketing Agency in Montreal, Quebec focused on the development of promotional strategies for various national marketing campaigns. In particular, a strong acumen for business development while marketing for Canon Canada Inc., won me national recognition for distinct performance and dedication. My keen interest in the financial services industry and vigorous pursuit of industry specific designations propelled me into the dominions of corporate finance and management consulting for numerous venture and institutional clients. Further to providing independent financial consulting services to small business enterprises, I have worked as an investor relations specialist, financial advisor and director of operations for private equity projects in line with leading establishments such as Citco Fund Services Inc., TD Canada Trust, and Deutsche Equity Partners. I have held positions on the Board of Directors at Select Bank PLC, a U.K. based private equity firm, and 3W Securities Inc., a subsidiary of Select Bank which provides trading services to worldwide investors. Areas of professional specialization include business plan development and implementation, investment advisory services with focus on structured products and placements, hedge fund portfolio management and strategic product marketing and sales.
