Kilgour Williams Group, Toronto, ON

Founded in 2007, Kilgour Williams Group is an investment banking boutique with an explicit focus on credit. We began operations during the global credit crunch of 2007 as a structured credit advisor helping those corporations, institutions, and retail investors who were hurt by the meltdown of Canada’s $34 billion Third Party Asset Backed Commercial Paper market. For over 7 years, we have been the trusted advisor to investors whose holdings represent about 20% of the paper outstanding. While these notes were restructured in 2009 and the market has stabilized significantly since then, we remain the leading advisor in this space and continue to dedicate senior level experts to it.
