Neo Financial Technologies Inc. (“Neo”) is proud to announce that it has been ranked No. 1 on the 2024 Report on Business magazine’s annual ranking of Canada’s Top Growing Companies. Neo Financial achieved this recognition thanks to an outstanding three-year revenue growth of 38,431%, driven by the relentless efforts of its best-in-class team and the growing demand from Canadians for modern financial solutions.

Canada’s Top Growing Companies celebrates Canadian businesses that have demonstrated exceptional growth and innovation. Neo Financial’s rapid rise to the top of the list is driven by its mission to empower people with modern financial solutions that challenge the status quo and reshape how they spend, save, and earn. As Canadians increasingly seek alternatives to traditional financial services, Neo Financial is proving to be the preferred choice for over 1 million consumers who want more control, transparency, and value from their financial products.

“Our No. 1 ranking on Canada’s Top Growing Companies list is a testament to the hard work of our team and the trust our customers have placed in us,” said Jeff Adamson, CCO and co-founder of Neo Financial. “At Neo Financial, we believe in giving Canadians the freedom to explore better financial options. This recognition highlights a broader movement in Canada – people want change, and they’re choosing us as the solution. Neo Financial’s incredible growth isn’t just a business milestone; it’s a validation of the need for more choices and better alternatives in the financial landscape.”

Founded in 2019, Neo Financial offers innovative financial solutions, including high-interest savings accounts, deposit accounts, a suite of Mastercard offerings, including a no-annual-fee cashback Mastercard, and competitive mortgage options. Neo Financial continues to attract Canadians who are eager to break free from legacy banking models and embrace the future of finance.

“This achievement isn’t just about numbers – it’s about our team’s shared commitment to pushing boundaries, continually innovating, and staying resilient to meet the evolving needs of our customers,” said Amanda Broos, Vice President of People at Neo Financial. “We’ve built a mission-driven culture that thrives on the challenge of improving the industry landscape, and that’s what fuels our growth.”

Canada’s Top Growing Companies ranking, which began in 2019, evaluates companies based on three-year revenue growth and requires firms to undergo a detailed application process. A total of 417 companies were featured in this year’s ranking.

The full list of 2024 winners, along with editorial coverage, is published in the October issue of the Report on Business magazine. The list is out now and online here.
