Roth Canada Expands Toronto Operations, Bolstering Investment Banking and Institutional Sales

Roth Capital Partners announced that its Canadian affiliate, Roth Canada, is expanding its Toronto operations, appointing David Parsons as Head of Canadian Institutional Sales and establishing new offices at 8 King St. E. This strategic move follows the opening of Roth Canada's Calgary office and is intended to strengthen the firm's investment banking and institutional distribution capabilities for Canadian issuers and investors.

David Parsons, who brings more than 25 years of capital markets experience, will provide Canadian investors access to ROTH management teams, research, and proprietary offerings while driving Canadian distribution on investment banking mandates. His appointment underscores Roth Canada's commitment to enhancing its institutional sales presence in the country's financial hub.

In addition, Michael Tait will lead the firm's Mining and Diversified Investment Banking teams from the Toronto offices. This leadership addition brings deep expertise in these sectors, which are critical to Canada's resource-driven economy. The expansion is designed to better serve Canadian growth companies and investors by providing a full suite of investment banking services, including capital raising, equity research, and M&A advisory.

The Toronto office expansion complements Roth Canada's existing presence in Vancouver and Calgary. In Calgary, Tony Loria leads the Energy and Sustainability investment banking practice, focusing on a sector that is vital to the region. With offices in key Canadian cities, Roth Canada aims to provide comprehensive coverage across the country, catering to the diverse needs of emerging growth companies and institutional investors.

Roth Canada, Inc. is a Canadian CIRO-regulated Dealer Member focused on serving emerging Canadian growth companies and their investors. Headquartered in Toronto, with offices in Vancouver and Calgary, the firm is positioned to facilitate access to capital markets for Canadian businesses.

ROTH, the parent company, is a relationship-driven investment bank focused on serving growth companies and their investors. Its full-service platform spans capital raising, high-impact equity research, macroeconomics, sales and trading, technical insights, derivatives strategies, M&A advisory, and corporate access. Headquartered in Newport Beach, California, ROTH is a privately held, employee-owned firm with offices across the U.S. This expansion reflects ROTH's ongoing commitment to providing comprehensive financial services to growth companies and investors across North America.

For Canadian issuers and investors, this expansion means enhanced access to ROTH's extensive research and distribution network. Institutional investors in Canada will benefit from direct access to ROTH's management teams and proprietary offerings, while Canadian companies seeking capital will have greater opportunities to connect with a broader investor base. The addition of experienced leaders like David Parsons and Michael Tait signals a strong commitment to the Canadian market and is expected to drive economic growth through increased investment activity.
