About us

Yield Exchange was designed to digitally transform the way institutional depositors shop for rates. 

 

The way institutional depositors search, compare, and negotiate for GIC rates is fundamentally flawed - we're excited to change that. Our goal is to digitally transform the way depositors lock in GIC rates by bringing unparalleled transparency into the investment process.

We're building an all-in-one treasury management platform that connects depositors directly to financial institutions like Vancity, Laurentian Bank of Canada, First West Credit Union, and many more. With Yield Exchange, depositors can easily diversify their portfolios , reduce fraud risk, and make informed investment decisions every single time.
