Dr. Dan Rosen, d1g1t’s co-Founder and CEO, said, “We are delighted to team with National Bank Independent Network, the largest provider in Canada of custody, trade execution and brokerage solutions to independent Portfolio Managers and Investment Dealers. Just five years ago, we began building a new advisor tech stack from scratch, focusing on integrating modern digital technologies with the best financial analytics used by top institutional investors.
