OUR MISSION

In many ways you could say our main product is customer support. It's what we work on the hardest. In fact, 100% of our staff is dedicated to this process in one way or another. Beyond fast speeds, amazing technology, and great uptime records - we realize that we must judge our success on how well we have supported our clients. It's really what matters the most in business today; to be accessible, friendly, and helpful at all times, and to maintain a response time among the best in the industry.

We value customer feedback. Please give us a report card on how we're doing. We want to know the good, the bad, and everything in between. We're listening.
 

OVER 25 YEARS OF LEADERSHIP

  • On April 4, 1983, following the abolition of fixed commissions on brokerage transactions in Quebec and Ontario, Disnat became the very first company in Canada to offer discount brokerage services for Canadian securities.

  • In 1990, Corporation Desjardins de valeurs mobilières (CDVM) completed its acquisition of Disnat and integrated it into the Desjardins network. The following year, CDVM changed its legal name to Desjardins Securities. Disnat thus became the company's discount brokerage firm.
  • Although at first investors could only place trades by phone, today Disnat receives more than 80% of its orders by Internet.

  • In 2003, Disnat launched Disnat Direct, a direct access service giving investors instant contact with stock exchanges and parallel markets (ECNs – Electronic Communication Networks), where they could quickly direct their orders to the best market. Once again, Disnat showed vision and leadership in its field, as it became the first online brokerage division belonging to a Canadian financial institution, namely Desjardins Group, to offer this service for highly active investors.
