TORONTO -- (Business Wire)

We are pleased to announce our intention to launch Nobelia Wealth, the new name of Richardson Wealth, effective November 30, 2026, subject to regulatory approvals. The Nobelia name reflects the firm’s evolution, enduring commitment to independent advice and ambitious vision for the future.

Following its acquisition by iA Financial Group (iA Financial Corporation Inc. (TSX: IAG)) in 2025, the firm will enter a new chapter while preserving the family culture, values and personalized approach that have defined its success for nearly a hundred years.

“The new name symbolizes a tradition of excellence and trust and honours our heritage while expressing our confidence in the future. Nobelia Wealth will continue to deliver multigenerational wealth stewardship to families, professionals and business owners across Canada,” said Julie Gallagher, President of Richardson Wealth. “Backed by the strength and scale of iA Financial Group, we are well positioned to support future growth while leveraging the independence and culture that define us.”

The name Nobelia evokes high standards of honesty and sophistication. It reflects the integrity, character and commitment that have long characterized the firm and the trusted relationships it seeks to build with clients throughout their life journey.

Nobelia Wealth gains strength from the Canadian leader in independent non-bank wealth distribution.

iA Financial Group is the Canadian leader in independent non-bank wealth distribution, and a Canadian success story, offering advisors a choice of three operating models and overseeing more than $218 billion in assets under administration.

“From the three complementary platforms—Nobelia Wealth, iA Private Wealth and Investia—advisors can select the model that best aligns with their business strategy and growth objectives, while benefitting from various levels of support and access to a broad investment shelf, including mutual funds, securities and alternative investments,” said Stephan Bourbonnais, Executive Vice-President, iA Wealth. “This flexibility enables advisors to deliver tailored wealth management solutions to their clients.”

The addition of Nobelia Wealth has strengthened iA Financial Group’s leadership in wealth distribution by complementing the offerings of iA Private Wealth and Investia and enhancing its ability to support the evolving needs of independent advisors.
