The Deans Knight Story.

Established in Vancouver in 1992, Deans Knight has a rich history of innovation and performance. When Wayne Deans and Doug Knight founded the firm, they wanted to build portfolios they would recommend to friends and family. They championed the value of Canadian equities and the independent investment approach that prevails today. Their desire to provide solutions that their clients could not find elsewhere resulted in Doug Knight being the first manager in Canada to focus on high-yield bonds.

Fostering deep and lasting relationships with clients has been a hallmark of the firm’s culture from its inception. Over time, the team consciously moved the business away from large institutional clientele, to providing valued personal advice to private families in Canada and throughout the world.

The current generation of management is a blend of talented investment professionals who trained alongside the Co-Founders and experienced entrepreneurs. The principles of teamwork, investment discernment, and a desire to provide a truly exceptional client experience are cornerstones of our team culture. Client testimonials demonstrate our unwavering commitment to creating lasting wealth and uncovering hidden value.
