About

Two lenses. One plan.

We built this team because clients kept asking both of us the same question: how much of my money should be steady, and how much can I swing with?

“Is this opportunity worth the risk?”
The bets

Chen He 何辰曦, CIM®

Investment Advisor

Chen helps investors back the bets. He started at Leede in 2019 as a venture capital intern and has been an Investment Advisor since 2021. He is also a partner in Leede’s Pan-Pacific/Asian division. Chen works mostly with accredited investors on private placements, flow-through and charitable flow-through financings, IPOs, CPCs, RTOs and LIFE offerings. He also works with growing companies on financing and corporate strategy, which gives him a close view of how deals come together and what separates a sound opportunity from a long shot. Before Leede, he was a client advisor at RBC. Chen studied at Simon Fraser University’s Beedie School of Business, is a Chartered Investment Manager (CIM®) and is fluent in Mandarin. His philosophy is simple: the most valuable relationships are built on trust.

“Can your plan carry it?”
The base

Max Pedret, CIM®

Investment Advisor

Max believes clarity is underrated. He helps individuals and families protect and grow what they’ve built through thoughtful planning and tailored investment strategies, so money supports their life instead of distracting from it. He joined Leede in 2024 after advising clients on investments and credit at RBC. Before finance, Max spent several years in the nonprofit sector, managing humanitarian programs focused on child nutrition and later running operations for BrossCare, a Vancouver home-care nonprofit, where he still serves on the board. He holds a degree in economics from the University of Victoria and is a Chartered Investment Manager (CIM®). Off the clock, he’s a vintage watch enthusiast, which may explain the soft spot for things built to last.
