Frequently Asked Questions

How are brokers compared?

We use a fixed rubric for all broker comparisons, focused on green bond access, fee transparency, platform usability, and regulatory compliance. No broker receives preferential treatment, and we don’t accept compensation for placement or inclusion.

How often is the data updated?

We update platform data and green bond access tables at least once a year, or sooner if there’s a major regulatory or product change in Canada. Updates are flagged on each review for transparency.

We only compare brokers available to Canadian residents and compliant with Canadian regulations. Global or unverified platforms are excluded to keep data accurate and relevant for our audience.
Our reviews do not provide personalized advice or single out ‘best’ brokers. Instead, they describe features, costs, limitations, and access for green bonds, so you make the final call.
