Our Investment Selection Process
Canadians today face mounting tax burdens and volatile markets; and with that comes uncertainty. At Rainmaker, we transform unease into a clear investment strategy. Every opportunity we select offers one thing above all - stability through transparency, thoughtful tax positioning, and real investment clarity.
These are not opaque products from faceless institutions, they are real opportunities you can understand, monitor, and trust.
Investment Selection & Due Diligence
Why It Matters
Private investments can be powerful wealth-building tools, but only if the due diligence is rigorous. Our clients want peace of mind that every opportunity has been examined by educated, experienced professionals from multiple perspectives.
What this means for you
You benefit from a dual filter: structured due diligence by seasoned professionals combined with Rainmaker’s independent, real-world insight. The result is a curated portfolio that is transparent, diversified, and designed to deliver stable income and long-term growth with greater peace of mind.
How the process works
- Extensive Reviews - Legal, financial, and operational due diligence completed with third-party specialists.
- Professional Oversight - A formal selection committee with multiple designations and decades of experience provides ongoing monitoring.
- Transparency & Audits - Each issuer is required to deliver annual audited reporting and continuous disclosure.
- Rainmaker’s Practical Lens - Beyond regulatory checks, we apply two decades of private market experience to assess suitability, scrutinize management, and decline opportunities that raise concerns.
Our Approach
Disciplined Selection. Client-Focused Portfolios.
Rainmaker maintains a small, carefully diversified portfolio of opportunities - not a broad shelf. Every investment is selected with discipline and diligence to reduce correlation and preserve stability.
From this foundation, portfolios are tailored to each client. Some clients prefer 2 to 4 select opportunities with larger allocations. Others build broader portfolios of 8 to 12 investments for added diversification. In every case, we design the mix to fit your goals, wealth structure, and comfort level.
Proven Performance Over Time
Behind every client portfolio is a history of dependable performance. We structure client capital to span private companies and structured real estate; blending growth and stability.
