Senior Portfolio Manager
Daryl’s greatest passions are family, helping people, and water sports, and working as senior portfolio manager gives him the opportunity to support all three. “My clients aren’t just a number,” he says, “I feel it’s my responsibility to not only help them reach their goals but to assure them that their goals are possible.”
As leader of The Knudson Wealth Group, Daryl leverages over 25 years of industry experience, combined with a Bachelor of Commerce degree from McMaster University, to provide his clients with industry-leading and research-driven investment management. Considered one of the industry’s leading investment professionals, Daryl taps into his extensive institutional knowledge to simplify complicated investment research for his clients.
Actively involved in the community, Daryl often dedicates his time to volunteer for the Canadian National Institute for the Blind (CNIB), most recently assisting with a waterfront revitalization project on Lake Joseph, and he’s proud to have his son following his example.
Daryl and his family split their time between Toronto and the Muskoka region, where he enjoys kite surfing, wakeboarding, snowboarding, and skiing.
Associate Portfolio Manager
Matthew was exposed to the world of finance at an early age. Since both of his parents are accountants, he quickly learned that making good financial decisions comes from having a solid knowledge base. He felt the best way help others was to pursue a career in financial services.
After earning a Bachelor of Arts degree from Western University, with a dual major in financial economics and biology, Matthew gained extensive full-service brokerage experience working for some of Canada’s largest financial institutions. Along the way, he became a CFA Charterholder, one of the industry’s top designations.
In 2021, Matthew joined The Knudson Wealth Group, where he leverages his previous experience and strong passion for capital markets to deliver industry-leading, research-backed portfolio management for our clients. Matthew is grateful to be in a position where he can empower and educate clients, and ultimately, help them move forward with confidence.
Outside of the office, Matthew enjoys exploring all the great dining Toronto has to offer. He is also a sports enthusiast, both playing and watching, with an emphasis on golf and basketball.
