Freschia Gonzales is a news writer at Wealth Professional Canada, covering Canadian equity markets, exchange-traded funds (ETFs), regulatory enforcement, alternative investments, banking, housing, and the macroeconomic developments shaping the wealth management and pensions industries across Canada. Her reporting is built around the insights of financial advisors, portfolio managers, asset managers, and market voices — and spans breaking news, regulatory decisions by the Canadian Investment Regulatory Organization (CIRO), and major market events affecting Canadian investors and financial planning professionals.

Since beginning her journalism career in 2021, Freschia has published more than 3,000 stories across international outlets, also contributing to Australasian Lawyer and NZ Lawyer. She graduated Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Arts in International Studies from the University of San Jose Recoletos.

How I think about writing for this industry…

“I write for advisors who already know the market, so my job is to get out of the way and let the people who move it speak. I chase the primary source before the press release, and I would rather run one hard number than five lines of framing. Good financial reporting respects the reader's time and their intelligence.”
