Peel Hunt have agreed to an exclusive distribution agreement to promote its research in Canada through CIBC, one of the five major Canadian banks.
As global investment practices have evolved, Canadian institutional investors are increasingly looking for more international exposure, which has caused a spike in demand for non-Canadian investment opportunities. During 2015 this has been demonstrated by a significant increase in Canadian corporate deal flow in the UK.
Peel Hunt, which already promotes its corporate clients and research in the US via its New York office, welcomes the agreement and has committed to sending a number of its highly regarded analysts to Canada over the coming year to extend its Canadian corporate roadshow capabilities.
