Honouring Excellence: Elliot Scherer
For 2025, the honour goes to Elliot Scherer, Managing Director & Global Head of CIBC Capital Markets’ Wealth Solutions Group.
With over two decades at CIBC Capital Markets, Elliot has played a defining role in shaping wealth solutions across the Canadian and global financial landscape. He leads a team that delivers structured notes, market-linked GICs, CDRs, fixed income, FX, financing, and hedging strategies to investment advisors, private bankers, and high-net-worth clients worldwide.
Beyond his leadership in capital markets, Elliot is a dedicated community advocate. He serves on the board of the Holland Bloorview Kids Rehabilitation Hospital Foundation and sits on CIBC’s Children’s Foundation Donations Committee. In 2025, he was also honoured with the Champion of Change Award by VersaFi, recognising his efforts to foster an inclusive and diverse workforce.
This prestigious Hall of Fame award is decided by peers and competitors in the industry, a true testament to Elliot’s lasting impact, reputation, and leadership.
