Toronto, Canada – July 31, 2025 – Common Wealth, Canada’s fastest-growing group retirement provider, today announced it has secured a C$15.0 million growth investment from Flow Capital Corp. (TSXV: FW), with an initial tranche of C$4.0 million. This strategic investment will fuel Common Wealth’s continued innovation in retirement technology and services, accelerating its mission to make retirement security accessible to all Canadians.
The investment comes as Common Wealth is experiencing rapid and accelerating growth within the small and mid-sized segment of the group retirement market. The company now serves over 1,100 employers across Canada (nearly 5x growth since the beginning of 2023) and has done business with over 325 advisors (nearly 7x growth since the beginning of 2023).
The funding will support accelerated growth in the Canadian market and key investments as part of Common Wealth’s strategic plan, including:
- Enhanced, regionally based support for advisor partners and employer clients
- Improved plan member value through enhanced digital experience, financial planning, education, and retirement income solutions
- Improved employer value through client stewardship and enhanced digital administration
- Continued investments in Common Wealth’s core retirement technology
Alex Mazer, Co-Founder and CEO of Common Wealth, said:
“We are thrilled that Flow Capital shares our excitement about the huge opportunity in the Canadian retirement market. This investment will accelerate our ability to serve Canadians and deliver the innovation our clients and partners have been asking for.”
Combining best-in-class digital technology with high-value human service, Common Wealth’s offering addresses critical gaps in Canada’s retirement system, where over 1 million employers and 10 million employees lack access to workplace retirement plans.
Alex Baluta, CEO of Flow Capital, emphasized:
“It is rare to find a company with the kind of clear product-market fit and impressive growth that Common Wealth is demonstrating. They are successfully tackling a massive, underserved market and fundamentally improving retirement outcomes for Canadians. Our founder-friendly capital was a perfect fit for the next stage of their expansion.”
