After graduating from the University of Windsor with a B.A. in Economics and Finance, Alex took a job with a leading retail and institutional investment firm in 1991.

He was appointed the firm’s Chief Executive Officer in 2009.
Specializing in Canadian small and mid cap equities, Alex has a strong track record of success in this less efficient and often ignored segment of the market. He uses his extensive and broad knowledge of the Canadian market to create and manage products that have the opportunity to add significant value to investors.
Alex is the leader of NCM and has been integral in the growth of the company since he joined through his strong work ethic, experience, speaking engagements and interviews in the newspaper and on television.
Alex is currently the Portfolio Manager of NCM Small Companies Fund and NCM Income Growth Class and has been since its inception. He also sits on the asset mix committee of the three NCM pension products and is a CFA charter holder.
