CWB Trust Services, a wholly owned subsidiary of CWB Financial Group, has been appointed as a registered plans trustee for Questrade, the Canadian online brokerage. The appointment will be effective from spring 2022.

As part of the agreement, CWB Trust Services will act as a participating trustee for Questrade’s registered plans.
