Industry Standards: The awards set higher benchmarks for other firms, creating a better service landscape in the wealth management industry.

PAM Awards 2025 - Best Family Office - Due Diligence Processes

This award highlights the family office that showcases exceptional policies and procedures in investment due diligence.
Submissions should illustrate the due diligence steps taken to evaluate various asset classes and new investment opportunities. This includes funds and direct investments.
“We firmly believe our world-class due diligence process rivals those of the globe’s leading institutions. Manager selection is critical in private markets due to limited disclosure and significant return dispersion. As a result, we employ an in-depth, multi-stage due diligence framework, focusing on investment strategy, management team, and track record,” says Joseph Abramson, MBA, CFA, Co-Chief Investment Manager & Portfolio Manager.
PAM Awards 2025 - Best Family Office – Long-Term Investment Philosophy

This award is intended for the family office that stands out in terms of long-term risk-adjusted performance.
"We are grateful for the recognition afforded us by the PAM awards as Highly Commended in the category of Long-Term Investment Philosophy. For almost a decade and a half, Northland Wealth has successfully blended a strategic investment outlook with a core commitment to alternative investments to meet our client families’ long-term goals,” remarks Jerry Olynuk, LLB, CFP, CFA, Managing Director & Portfolio Manager.
PAM Awards 2025 - Best Firm Culture

This award recognizes the wealth management firm or family office that fosters an inclusive and positive working environment for its employees. It also considers the firm's business continuation structure for the future.
“Since Northland Wealth’s founding in 2011 as one of the first family offices in Canada, we dedicated ourselves to improving the odds of growing and transferring family wealth over generations. We do this by employing some of the most accomplished and experienced investment professionals combined with industry-leading technology systems along with a true unconflicted open-architecture investment platform. We sum all of this up with our motto – We Place Your Family First®,” notes Arthur Salzer, CFA, Northland Wealth Founder and CEO.
