Desjardins Sécurité financière Réseau indépendant (DSFRI) is a financial services network affiliated with Desjardins, Canada’s leading financial cooperative group. In Quebec and New Brunswick, the network operates under the name SFL Gestion de patrimoine. It distributes wealth management products and services through independent financial advisors, who can build their own practices while drawing on the strength and resources of an established organization.

DSFRI supports advisors with business development, client acquisition and practice transitions, as well as secure digital tools, technical assistance, marketing and graphic design services, and flexible professional training. Its financial planning, tax and legal specialists can also help advisors address complex client needs. Advisors have access to investment and insurance solutions from more than 70 fund companies and 20 insurers, including Desjardins Insurance and other major Canadian providers.

Through its independent, multi-provider approach, the network helps advisors create tailored financial plans for clients’ goals, including investing, insurance protection and retirement planning. DSFRI’s offering combines advisor autonomy with ongoing support from financial centres, including sales training, mentorship and guidance.
