Meet Our Team

Renato (Ron) Dell'Anno

Senior Investment Advisor

Ron has almost 50 years’ experience in the investment industry and is our team’s most senior advisor. He joined BMO Nesbitt Burns in 2000 and officially teamed up with his sons Robert and Marco to form the Dell’Anno Group in 2010. Ron shares all our private client wealth planning and investment management responsibilities with Marco. Working together, the Dell’Annos have established a strong reputation in the City of Vaughan and the community of Woodbridge.

Ron’s former experience in commercial lending, mortgage lending and private banking enables him to have much fuller conversations with clients. This knowledge makes both sides of our service offering more meaningful for people.

Ron has lived in Woodbridge with his wife for several decades, where he has been actively involved in the community. He enjoys hunting and getting out into the great outdoors with his sons.
