The firm
Principals
MIC Investing is operated by Diversifi Alternative Investments Ltd. The licensed dealing representatives behind that house are Harris Abro and Peter Kinch. Office contact first. Suitability before any recommendation.
Roles
Two licensed people, one regulated house
This page names the principals. It is not a catalogue of products and it is not a promise of outcome. Diversifi Alternative Investments Ltd. is a registered Exempt Market Dealer in British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Ontario. Harris and Peter work inside that registration. They do not run a MIC. They review select offerings, teach the category, and conduct suitability work when a conversation should go further.
First contact on this site runs through the MIC Investing office line and inbox. That keeps meeting coordination with the office. It also keeps personal cells off a public webpage. Read the dealer role on Diversifi if you want the house before the people.

How contact works
Office first, then a licensed conversation
Call or email the MIC Investing office. If a short educational conversation makes sense, a licensed dealing representative joins. That may be Harris, Peter, or both. If MIC investing is the wrong chair, you should leave with a clear no. Honest filters live on Who This Is For.
