Do you know the AMF?

When it comes to mortgages, it’s essential to know who you can trust for clear and unbiased information. In Québec, the Autorité des marchés financiers (AMF) oversees all mortgage brokers — and Desjardins, as the only lender. Its role is to ensure that consumers are protected and well informed.

Whether you’re shopping for your first home or simply curious to learn more, these AMF tools are an excellent resource to better understand the world of mortgages.

The AMF is the organization that regulates the profession and ensures that mortgage brokers like Pierre-Alain uphold the highest standards of transparency and professionalism. By choosing his services, you benefit not only from his personalized expertise but also from the security and trust that come with a practice regulated by the AMF.

At the federal level, the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions (OSFI) regulates mortgage brokers for federally regulated financial institutions, as well as the stability and compliance of banks such as the Laurentian Bank and the Bank of Canada. For you, this means your financing is backed by stable and secure institutions.

On the real estate side, the Organisme d’autoréglementation du courtage immobilier du Québec (OACIQ) oversees the profession, ensuring the competence and transparency of services provided to property buyers and sellers. This means you can trust that your real estate transactions are properly regulated and secure.
