BluMont, a subsidiary of Canada-based Integrated Asset Management, offers retail investors products aimed at diversification and return potential outside traditional equity and fixed income investments.

Northern Rivers, founded in 2001, offers specialised investment funds, including an innovation fund, a conservative growth fund LP and a global energy fund.

Robert Blakely, president of Northern Rivers, said he expects the firm’s funds to benefit from economies of scale at IAM.

IAM has approximately $2 billion in assets and committed capital under management in real estate, private corporate debt, private equity, managed futures and retail alternative investments.
