Our Firm
The Designed Story
Designed Securities Ltd. was borne out of the belief that the industry does not maintain enough truly independent options for advisors. It was founded on the belief that true independence means clients are free to choose platforms, products and investment strategies that are not burdened by the decisions, mandates, or proprietary product shelf of a parent company or majority owner.
“Independence” is coined frequently from large organizations with parents companies, dealers that have proprietary products and sales quotas, to public companies who are accountable to shareholders. Designed’s founders wanted to create something that would be different. Not only would it be independent, but it would bring transparency to the forefront, listen closely to the advisor’s voice and provide for staff and advisors alike to participate in the long run success of the company.
Having successfully launched in 2021, the firm continues to gain momentum in the industry with its original ideas. With “Designed” as the name, the aim is to stay connected to deliberate decision making, planning, measuring along the way, and designing a successful future much in the same way the advisors create plans and strategies for their clients.
