Our Philosophy
Advisors should not have to choose between independence and infrastructure
The industry keeps offering advisors the same trade. Give up your brand, your shelf or your ownership, and in return you get scale. We think that trade is unnecessary.
What we believe
An advisory practice is a business, not a distribution channel. It has a value, an owner and a succession problem. Most of the structures in Canadian wealth management were built for the convenience of the institution rather than the advisor who built the client base.
On ownership
Advisors should own what they built. That is why the platform supports two tracks. Keep your practice entirely, or join Rockmoor with shared equity in exchange for the brand and the growth system. Both are real options. Neither requires you to hand over the client relationship.
On cost
Fees should be visible. Product embedded costs made sense when nobody had to explain them. Total Cost Reporting ends that. We would rather advisors move to a plainly stated fee on their own timetable than defend an embedded one under pressure.
On exits
A succession plan is not a conversation you have 12 months before exit. Value is built years before it is realised, and the advisors who do best are the ones who decide early what their exit looks like. We would rather agree a route with an advisor five years out than run a fire sale.
On staying Canadian
3PG is owned by its three Canadian founders. There is no outside capital and no exit clock. That shapes how long a horizon we can take on any individual practice.
Integrity
We tell advisors what we can actually do, including when the answer is no.
Transparency
Fees are stated, not embedded. That applies to us as much as to the client.
Patience
We would rather do the right deal in three years than the wrong one this quarter.
