Kurt Pedersen

CA, B. Comm. — Senior Vice President, Investment Advisor

My team and I work with high net worth individuals, charitable trusts and small institutions throughout Canada, the United States and overseas on a variety of investment mandates. Prior to entering the investment industry I completed my designation as a Chartered Accountant (CA) at KPMG in Calgary in 1996. My career as an Investment Advisor began in 1997 when I joined Research Capital. In 2002, I made the move to Blackmont Capital, the predecessor firm to Macquarie Private Wealth, to offer my clients a better platform, more sophisticated technology and superior service.

I completed my Bachelor of Commerce degree at the University of Calgary and played on their men's varsity basketball team. Outside of the office, I enjoy spending time with my wife Liz and three children, Olivia (11), Lucas (9) and Leyton (5) who are involved in numerous activities including dance, hockey, basketball and piano.

I am proud to have been selected as a member of the Macquarie Elite (previously the Blackmont Elite), a program that recognizes the firm's top 15 Investment Advisors across the country.
