The Kuzyk Private Wealth Team.

Kuzyk Private Wealth Team
Our Leader
Philip Kuzyk, CIM - Senior Portfolio Manager

Philip Kuzyk

Senior Portfolio Manager CIM®

As the head of Kuzyk Private Wealth, Philip has spent over 26 years helping individuals, families, corporations, and institutions successfully manage and grow their wealth. He has built a strong client base by combining personalized advice with disciplined portfolio management. Philip is a Chartered Investment Manager (CIM®).

Before founding Kuzyk Private Wealth at Harbourfront Wealth Management, Philip spent more than a decade as Vice President, Investment Advisor, and Senior Portfolio Manager at Canaccord Genuity Wealth Management, one of Canada's leading independent wealth firms. His move to Harbourfront in 2025, together with his full advisory team, was driven by a commitment to true independence and the ability to serve clients without the constraints of a bank-owned platform.

Philip's approach is built on the belief that wealth management should be deeply personal. Every portfolio he constructs reflects the individual goals, risk tolerance, and life circumstances of the client it serves. Outside of work, he enjoys life in West Vancouver with his wife and two sons.

Our Philosophy

Three principles that define how we manage wealth.

True Independence

We are not beholden to any bank, product manufacturer, or sales target. Our move to Harbourfront Wealth Management was deliberate: it gives us the freedom to recommend what is genuinely best for each client, without compromise. Independence is not a marketing claim for us. It is the foundation of every decision we make.

Disciplined Portfolio Management

Markets reward patience, process, and conviction. Philip's investment approach is grounded in rigorous research, thoughtful diversification, and a long-term perspective that does not bend to short-term noise. Every portfolio is constructed with a clear thesis and managed with the discipline that 26 years of experience demands.

Personalized Advice

No two clients are the same, and no two portfolios should be either. We begin every relationship by listening. We take the time to understand your complete financial picture, your goals, your concerns, and your values, then build a strategy that reflects who you are and where you want to go.

The Team

The people behind your wealth strategy.

Every member of the Kuzyk Private Wealth team plays a critical role in delivering the level of service our clients expect and deserve.
