Ilan Zor
Wealth Advisor
Born and raised in Tel Aviv, Israel, I served four years as a Lieutenant in the Israeli Defense Force.
After my service, I moved to Toronto, completing an MBA at the Rotman School of Management and building more than 20 years of experience in financial services.
Outside of work, I’m a proud father of six children (two daughters and four stepchildren), and a dog owner of a Great Dane and a mini cup Shih Tzu. I enjoy running, hiking, and mountain biking in my free time.
My investment philosophy is rooted in active management with a strong emphasis on strategic asset allocation. I believe that consistent returns come not from chasing the next big stock, but from carefully balancing and aligning investments with each client’s unique goals and risk tolerance. By blending innovative solutions with personalized investment strategies, I help clients with their financial goals and financial security.
