Born and raised on the beautiful island of Barbados Durand moved to Winnipeg, Canada in 2018. In 2019 he began his career at RBC. Before moving to Canada, he enjoyed various roles in the Financial Services Industry in Barbados, having worked at CIBC, and as an Insurance Agent at Sagicor Life Inc.
Durand has completed numerous courses in the areas of investing and wealth management through the Canadian Securities Institute. These include the Investment Funds in Canada, Canadian Securities Course, Conduct and Practices Handbook Course, and Wealth Management Essentials.
His commitment to delivering excellent client service in almost a decade of his professional career in the financial services sector was why he was awarded the Regional Presidents Award and the Model Leadership Award by the Royal Bank of Canada in 2020.
Durand's philosophy is simple; people first, and always. This means consistently putting the interests of clients first; that their goals and priorities should be placed at the center of all his activities.
When Durand isn’t working, he is spending quality time with his wife Tonya and their two daughters, Savannah, and Eden.
