Karl Theard

I hold my Bachelor of Business Administration from HEC Montreal with over 10 years of experience within the banking and financial services industry with a specialty in the tech sector supporting investing and lending. My expertise has been within driving business and revenue growth through effective client relationship building, market and data analysis to guide business strategies, and portfolio management to ensure client’s financial objectives are achieved.

I have worked as the Director for Silicon Valley Bank where I was brought on board as the first employee in Quebec to open the new market and establish a strong brand presence. Prior to this role, I worked as the Investment Manager for Desjardins Capital and Senior Account Manager for Bank of Canada in which I’ve proven my ability to lead profitable operations through business planning, sales performance, process innovation, and leadership development. My experience in building new business avenues, identifying opportunities, cultivating client relationships, and spearheading effective market strategies, positions me to greatly impact your organization.
