Frequently asked questions
How does Grandeur Peak source proprietary deal flow?
Grandeur Peak relies on a team of in-house analysts who conduct on-the-ground research, including company visits and management meetings across the markets where it invests.

It focuses on identifying under-covered companies, often in small and mid-cap international markets (per public filings).
Which sectors does Grandeur Peak explicitly avoid?

The firm's sector preferences tilt toward consumer, technology, healthcare, and industrials, as reflected in its historical holdings.
