Signing into six different financial portals to check the performance of your investments can feel time-consuming and monotonous. Moreover, it can be difficult to track and calculate your net worth with your assets diversified across different platforms. That’s where Wealthica comes in; a financial and investment tracking app that provides an overview of all your financial transactions and investments. 

What is Wealthica?

Wealthica was born from the ambition of three men looking to consolidate investment reports. It is an investment tracking app and web-based app that supports more than a hundred financial institutions and investment platforms. It is a Montreal-based company that was founded in 2015. Today, Wealthica is one of Canada’s largest financial aggregators with more than $5 billion aggregated assets.

Wealthica’s Story 

Wealthica was created after the sale of an internet infrastructure company called iWeb. iWeb was built by Martin LeClair and Simon Boulet; masters of web development and design. It was later sold to Internap Network Services Corporation. After its sale, Eric Lemieux; a former executive of Desjardins joined their team, and thus began the creation of Wealthica. Through the expertise of these three men and their desire to consolidate investment reports, Wealthica was born. They hope to provide a transparent overview of all your investments and financial transactions across all platforms in one account.

Safe and risky investments, which one is right for you?

Wealthica’s Mission on Consolidating Your Investment Reports

Wealthica was created with the mission to provide Canadians with an unbiased overview of their investments so that they may see the true value of their net worth. Wealthica works by first connecting to your financial institutions and investment platforms. Once connected, it compiles all of your investment holdings into a single list where you can review your balances and see where you stand. It records all transactions and automatically updates each day so you may review the performance of your investments.
