Access To Opportunity

Providing Comprehensive Financial Services To Canadians

Raintree Financial Solutions is an award-winning Private Capital Market Dealer dedicated to bringing alternative investment opportunities to Canadians. Through our extensive network of Private Wealth Advisors, we strive to empower individuals with access to a diverse range of investment opportunities that go beyond traditional stocks and bonds.

Why Consider Alternative Investments?

Portfolio Diversification:

Alternative investments may introduce low-correlating assets, which means their performance is not directly tied to the stock market. This diversification has the potential to help reduce overall portfolio risk and enhance returns.

(Prequin)

Access to Exclusive Opportunities:

Alternative investments provide access to markets and sectors that are not readily available through traditional
channels. This exclusivity enables you to tap into emerging industries, private equity deals, real estate ventures, and more.

Potential for Higher Returns:

Alternative investments have the potential to deliver attractive returns that may outperform traditional investments in exchange for higher risk.

Hedge Against Inflation:

Certain alternative investments, such as real estate or commodities, have the potential to act as a hedge against inflation. These assets may maintain or increase in value as inflation rises, preserving your purchasing power

(Cohen & Steers)

Our Approach to Alternative Investments

We offer a diverse array of alternative investments, including:

Private Equity:

Real Estate:

Other:

Explore a variety of other niche alternative investments such as infrastructure, commodities, natural resources, and much more.

Our Core + Explore™ Investment Philosophy

We have created an investment strategy called Core + Explore to try and address many shortcomings of the old “60/40” portfolio. We believe that for investors to achieve enhanced diversification, they will need to include private and public investments in their portfolio:

Core:

The traditional part of a portfolio. These securities tend to be more conservative, liquid, and market-oriented. We believe the best way to invest in the ‘Core’ of your portfolio is through a Registered Portfolio Manager that resonates with your investment circumstances and philosophies.

Explore:

The alternative investment component of the portfolio. These private investments tend to be riskier, but can deliver portfolio diversification and have the potential to produce outsized returns.

Portfolio Management Referrals

Raintree connects clients with suitable Portfolio Managers across Canada to manage the Core portion of their portfolio. We have cultivated relationships with various Portfolio Managers, each offering unique and specific investment strategies. Portfolio Managers specialize in managing investment portfolios and making final investment decisions for a variety of clients, including pensions, endowments, foundations, and private individuals. Clients typically grant discretionary management authority to Portfolio Managers, allowing them to make investment decisions without prior approval for each transaction. Working with a Portfolio Manager offers several advantages, including their fiduciary duty to act in the best interest of clients, independent investment decisions to prevent conflicts of interest, and transparent fee structures based on a percentage of managed investments. Unlike retail investment managers, Portfolio Managers often charge lower management fees due to their management of larger sums of money for a smaller client base, providing clients with a cost-effective and trustworthy investment management solution.
