“Can Parvis build a cross-border (Canada + U.S.) private markets investment platform—combining EMD/broker-dealer licensing, a secondary liquidity market, and embedded payment rails—to become the go-to infrastructure for retail accredited investors accessing real estate and private equity?”
Parvis Invest launched as a Canadian Exempt Market Dealer (EMD) providing a technology-enabled platform for accredited and eligible investors to access private real estate and private equity deals. The company expanded beyond a simple deal-access model by introducing a Secondary Market, giving investors unprecedented liquidity options in otherwise illiquid private market assets. In 2026, Parvis accelerated its growth ambitions through a series of M&A moves—including a letter of intent to acquire a U.S. FINRA-registered broker-dealer—signalling a pivot from a purely Canadian EMD into a cross-border private markets platform operating in both Canada and the United States.
