Desjardins research to be available in Europe

Desjardins Securities has signed a deal with ESN North America which will deliver the research on Canadian companies across Europe.

“ESN North America is a natural partner for Desjardins Securities and Desjardins Group as a whole,” says Richard Nadeau, vice-chairman and managing director of capital markets with Desjardins Securities. “They provide access to over 1,200 clients, mutual fund managers, wealth managers and private banks across Europe. For Desjardins Securities, this first international partnership should create increased visibility for its clients and a unique storefront for their analysts’ expertise.”

Desjardins will have its products and research analyses of about 150 Canadian securities in the energy and natural resources sectors distributed in 18 European countries including Germany, Spain, France, Italy, Luxembourg, Belgium, the United Kingdom and Switzerland.

The deal also includes road shows and assistance to listed companies which are interested in connecting with institutional investors in the Canadian and European markets.

ESN North America is a majority-owned subsidiary of CM-CIC Securities held in collaboration with Banca Akros S.P.A. and Caja Madrid Bolsa S.V.B.
