Chris believes that, when you’ve worked hard to build success for yourself, your family, or your business, you deserve to feel secure knowing your wealth is managed by someone you can trust—someone with strong community values that genuinely wants the best for you and your loved ones.
As an Investment Advisor with RBC Dominion Securities, Chris Ballantyne provides access to a comprehensive range of services to help you build and protect your wealth. Chris has always enjoyed helping people realize their ambitions, and that, combined with his knack for numbers, led him to begin his career in finance in 2010, and become an Investment Advisor in 2021. He harnesses his expert knowledge and many years of experience, including previous roles as a Senior Financial Advisor and Business Account Manager, to develop personalized wealth management strategies for his clients. To better serve his client’s needs, Chris has acquired the advanced industry designation of Personal Financial Planner (PFP), and completed the Canadian Securities Course (CSC), as well as the Conduct and Practices Handbook Course (CPH).
To Chris, putting financial plans together is like a puzzle—where every client’s situation is unique, and deserves to be pieced together with a customized approach. Above all, his primary goal is to help clients sleep better at night with greater financial confidence. Whether you’re in need of broad or complex financial solutions, Chris’ breadth of experience, expertise and credentials help ensure you will receive sound advice, well-executed investment plans, and financial peace of mind.
Outside the office, Chris enjoys spending time with his wife, Melissa, and kids, Alexandria and Hayden. In the summer, you can usually find Chris out camping, boating, golfing, and playing slo-pitch. A big believer in giving back to the community, Chris does so through volunteering with the United Way Campaign Cabinet. He’s also a regular at the Westerner Park Centrium during hockey season, and a proud supporter of the Red Deer Rebels.
