Client impact

“Graduating from a big bank to Genus was one of the best financial steps we've ever taken. Genus has delivered reliable asset growth despite our moderate risk tolerance. As our financial security has grown, we've also been the beneficiaries of a great client experience. The company's communications have been consistently transparent and informative, including educational webinars and a well-designed web portal where we can track investments daily. Most importantly to us, our portfolio manager has always responded swiftly and thoroughly to our questions and requests. ”
Martin T.
"Having relatively diverse financial goals and needs, along with a slight reticence regarding the stock market, Genus skillfully addressed all of our concerns, and put together a truly exceptional plan: Fossil free funds and a diversified investment portfolio, check; An effective Impact investment portfolio that coincides with our hopes and dreams for a better world, check; Professional advice and assistance to create a donor advised charitable fund with immediate charitable receipts for tax purposes, check. Returns? Way beyond our expectations! We even had some fun along the way and certainly enjoyed an incredible two-year start to what will be a satisfying long-term relationship with Genus."
Marc B.
“I love the service I get at Genus.”
Chris H.
“Leslie and I were fellow board members when we met twenty years ago. For the last ten she has been thoughtful in the construction of an investment strategy for my family and is executing the strategy as planned. The team at Genus has met my expectations and are a pleasure to deal with.”
Bob Q.
“For over 15 years, I have provided selection and performance evaluation of multiple investment managers for a significant family office. Leslie and Genus have been foundational for me in my role. I have always found Leslie and her colleagues to be insightful and proactive, and found the performance of their portion of the portfolio to be well above benchmarks. And they have been a great pleasure to work with.”
Douglas H.
“Genus is a very innovative firm. I am pleased to invest in their Fossil Free and Impact strategies that help me invest in line with my values.”
Marnie C.
“Great team of professionals. Excellent website and reporting. Responds to inquiries promptly. Very pleased with the process of changing from another company to Genus as well. Kudos.”
David L.
“Genus consistently provides a good, clearly explained, comprehensive picture of the general economic and financial situation, along with an excellent account of the investment decisions made in relation to this. Genus’ equally strong concern with clients’ questions and requests for further information is also a very important part of the service it provides.”
Allan S.
“Back in 1992 when I found myself at fifty with a substantial amount of money to invest, I knew just one thing — that I didn’t want to contribute to tobacco companies, arms manufacturers, or oil. But over the ensuing years the options for socially responsible investing have become far more sophisticated and I’m very happy that this is a big part of the Genus approach. I also very much appreciate the long-term relationship with my portfolio manager, Mary Lou.”
Ann P.

Frequently Asked Questions

Genus has offered Canadians sustainable investment solutions since 1994, helping individuals and organizations leverage social and environmental impact through their investments. Since 2014, we’ve demonstrated to Canadian investors that, even in a resource-heavy economy, it is possible to build a financial legacy that does not contribute to climate change.

We demonstrate gender and ethnic diversity throughout our entire team, including our management and board of directors. We are also proud to have been a certified B Corp since 2017. 

We screen out industries or companies that don’t align with your values and integrate environmental, social, and governance (ESG) screening into your investments. This includes screening for fossil fuels, indigenous conflicts, and gender and other social inequalities. 

Genus offers several types of values-based investing:

Impact investing screens out harmful industries in your portfolio with success being measured by both financial returns and the achievement of tangible positive social or environmental impact. 

Sustainable investing uses Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) screens to assess the sustainability of companies and countries. These three factors are seen as best embodying the three major challenges facing corporations and society at large: climate change, human rights, and adherence to laws.

Responsible investing eliminates or adds investments based solely on specific ethical considerations. Socially responsible investors avoid investing in companies with a negative impact. These companies may take part in the following industries: alcohol, tobacco, and other addictive substances; gambling; weapons production; human rights and labor violations; and environmental damage.
