Prosper Wealth Ltd.

In October 2020, Nanton Financial Services merged with Prosper Wealth. We have been providing Group Benefits and service to the Child Care industry since 1979 (Duncan Financial Group back then). In November 2009 the ICA approached Nanton Financial asking them to provide us with a Group Benefits Program best suited to our needs. Since 2010 they have provided us with access to a Quality Comprehensive Benefits program for our members.
