At Zelos, we believe in the power of community. Every day we work to enhance the well-being and improve the quality of life of our clients and our community. Zelos dedicates a percentage of our revenue and time to advancing three interconnected causes:
EXPANDING DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION
EMPOWERING WOMEN AND GIRLS
ENHANCING FINANCIAL EDUCATION
Our firm’s ongoing commitments:
Zelos is proud to be the inaugural founding donor of the Mount Royal University Student Fund (the Fund). Our team members work with students and the faculty in this important initiative connecting academics with real-world work.
The Fund is actively looking for more donors and speakers.
Zelos believes the Calgary Immigrant Women’s Association (CIWA) is providing critical programs that improve the integration of new Canadians into the local workforce. We support CIWA through providing internships in their three flagship programs:
Zelos is a proud participant in the 50 – 30 Challenge. At Zelos we believe in the power of team diversity. Our globally educated and experienced team is a key competitive advantage for our firm, and we continually strive to promote inclusion within Zelos and our community. The initiative between the Government of Canada and business and diversity organizations, asks participating members to aspire to two goals:
- Gender parity (“50%”) on Canadian board(s) and senior management; and
- Significant representation (“30%”) on Canadian board(s) and senior management of other under-represented groups, including racialized persons, people living with disabilities (including invisible and episodic disabilities) and members of the LGBTQ2 community. The program and participants recognize that First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples as founding peoples of Canada are under-represented in positions of economic influence and leadership.
Zelos is a small team with big heart and you will find our people out in the community volunteering in a wide variety of personal interest areas, from humanitarian causes, educational initiatives, political advancement, investor advocacy, sports causes and lifting the load of local parents through car-pooling and errands – we believe small acts and small moments build the stories of our lives.

I am not good with numbers, nor am I good at understanding investments - so to say that the Zelos team have taken incredible care of me would be an understatement. They listen to your financial desires and build a portfolio that makes sense for you -- and they explain it to you in a way that makes sense!
Today: I understand my investments - and, more importantly, those investments are always heading in the right direction (up). I sleep soundly knowing that my investments are in their hands.

We have complete confidence in him and his team at Zelos Capital and their professional abilities and we have always found their advice to be clear, relevant and prudent, hence we have switched our investments to Zelos and have seen positive returns which ensured us that our investments are in good hands.
If you're looking for someone to help you with your investment, we highly recommend you speak with a Zelos team member.

Gilbert made this process simple and less intimidating - exactly what I needed as I don't have much knowledge in this area. His team has been incredibly helpful and genuinely care about my family. I've had such a great experience with them and I'm confident that my investments are in good hands. I highly recommend working with Zelos.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been working with Zelos Investment Counsel since last year to diversify my investment portfolio. Opting for a boutique investment firm over a large bank, I found Gilbert and his team to be true professionals. They are quick to respond to any questions I have. The Zelos investment platform is comprehensive and user-friendly, making it easy to understand the performance of my funds. I look forward to continuing my partnership with them for many years to come.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. When it comes to financial management, the level of service and attention to detail Zelos offers is unlike anything I've experienced. Gilbert and his team ensure that I am up to date, in real time, on my investments and always communicate with me to ensure my investment objectives are still current. I don't mean they reach out yearly, they are in contact monthly and sometimes more than that. I appreciate that they care about my money as if it were their own.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After a few years with our previous financial investment firm, we decided to evaluate other options in the market. After meeting with the team at Zelos, we decided to switch over. During the introductory meetings, we were very happy with the responses from our questions regarding varying strategies, long term and short term goals. The Zelos team is very professional, communicated clearly and provided multiple modelling options to help us understand our path forward. The account transfer process was easy and handled electronically. Zelos continues to provide amazing services with routine updates regarding our accounts. We strongly recommend meeting the team at Zelos to evaluate your current finances to plan your future.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Gil and the entire team at Zelos Capital has been an absolute blessing. We are the typical family that knows very little about financial matters and investments, and really didn't know anything before joining Zelos.
Gil educates us on all matters pertaining to our money and banking and we feel so comfortable actually KNOWing where our money is going.
He has been able to show us how to properly invest our money and how to get our money to make money. He's always willing to sit down with us to chat or redefine our goals and work towards a sustainable future, especially during these unprecedented times.
We are truly so grateful for Gil and the entire Zelos Capital team for helping us understand such a large part of our life.
I would recommend this company to anyone who wants to know more about their money and where it's going/what it's doing!

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My Wife and I made the decision to switch all our investments over to Zelos and it has been nothing but a success. They are not only very swift in communication, (email, text, call, Zoom) but extremely personable in building a relationship with their clients. We find this makes it easy to ask all types of questions in regards to our family's financial plans.
They have been forward thinking in how to invest and don't just blanket package plans together. We personally work with Gilbert and that experience has been tremendous, especially though uncertain times like 2020 presented us. We will continue to work with Zelos and encourage our family and friends to make the switch.
