François Breton

As a financial planner and co-founder of Navia Financial Group Inc, my Clients' goals and life plans are my priority and I remain sensitive to their needs. That's why I work hard to provide clients with financial plans that will help them achieve their dreams and the lifestyle they desire.

I have worked in finance for over 27 years and have guided many clients along the way. I strive to create open, honest relationships based on reliability, trust and sound advice.

As a husband and father of 3 grown children, we enjoy skiing as well as discovering and hiking new trails.

Maxim Tissot

As an Advisor of Navia Financial Group Inc., I aim towards supporting and guiding Clients through the big financial steps of their lives. It is very rewarding to be able to help people with the purchase of their first home, the birth of a child and planning towards retirement.  

I initially started in the financial industry in 2021 as an administrative assistant. During that time, I got the chance to learn about the administrative work done by our wonderful administrative team to better serve Clients and our advisors. What I learned then has helped me a lot with the role I now hold today. In fact, I was a Client at Navia Financial Groupe inc. before joining the team. This greatly helps me understand how you feel and what you should expect from working with a dynamic team like ours. 

I retired from professional soccer at the end of 2024. I’ve been practicing the sport for more than 25 years, with 12 of those years as a professional. The values learned through sport such as teamwork, discipline and diligence have helped me not only in this working environment, but in everyday life as well.

Marc-Antoine Guimond

My primary objective, as a consultant within the Navia Financial Group inc., is to support Clients in navigating the financial world through the important stages and projects of their lives. My priority will always be listening to your needs in setting your goals and achieving your dreams. Ultimately, that’s why I joined the company in 2023.


Prior to joining the company, I had a career as a Chartered Professional Accountant (CPA) for 7 years. This experience allowed me to gain a comprehensive understanding of the financial field, taxation as well as the scope of the accountant’s work. This knowledge allows me to resume the work of the accountant where it stops. In the future, I aspire to develop relationships with Clients based on values such as trust, discretion, familiarity, rigour and perseverance.


I have been married since 2021, and our union has brought us two beautiful children. Our favorite family activities are the outdoors in all its forms and to have our children discover the world through adventures and travel.
