Westface Financial Advisory

Marc-André Audet serves as President of Westface Financial Advisory and leads investment decisions for the firm. His background includes private capital markets experience in Canada, though the firm does not publicly disclose a detailed team roster or an investment committee structure (per public record).

Westface sources deals through its network of institutional relationships and co-investment partnerships. The firm's multi-family office structure allows access to deals that typically require relationships with GPs and other family offices. Specific sourcing methods are not publicly detailed, but the model relies on patient, long-term relationships rather than competitive auctions (per public record).

Westface targets private equity, real estate, infrastructure, and energy transition assets. The firm focuses on direct investments and co-investments across North America. It does not publicly specify a stage preference, though its deal activity skews toward mature, cash-flow-generating assets in real estate and infrastructure rather than early-stage venture (per public record).

Westface is structured as a multi-family office, managing capital for multiple Canadian families rather than a single dynasty. This structure differentiates it from single-family offices, as it pools capital from several sources and operates without proprietary capital from a single family (per public record).

Westface participates in both fund commitments and direct co-investments. The firm allocates to private equity funds, venture funds, and real estate partnerships, while also making direct investments in select assets, particularly in real estate and infrastructure. The mix between funds and directs is not publicly quantified (per public record).

Westface primarily invests in Canada and the United States, with select exposure to European markets through co-investment structures. The firm's team is based in Montreal, and its client base is exclusively Canadian, though investment opportunities are evaluated across North American markets (per public record).

The specific sources of wealth for the families Westface serves are not publicly disclosed. As a multi-family office serving Canadian families, the capital likely originates from entrepreneurial or inherited wealth, but no further details are available. The firm does not publicize its client base or capital origins (per public record).
