Westmount Capital

What Westmount Capital does

Westmount Capital is a Geneva-headquartered boutique advisory firm founded in March 2006 by Robert Seguin that provides capital markets and investor relations services to micro and small-cap public companies. Its core offering is organized into three interconnected services: European Road-Shows (CEO presentation tours across London, Paris, Geneva, Zurich, Frankfurt, Berlin, Munich, Milan, Madrid, Monaco and other cities, plus in-country investor tours in Latin America), an Investor Relations Program (ongoing communications, Zoom webinars, mining-conference coordination at PDAC, Mines & Money, and Colombia Gold), and Capital Market Services (private placements, mezzanine debt, convertible debentures, and a Market Maker Facility at the Frankfurt Stock Exchange via a Munich-based associate).

The firm targets private and public listed micro and small-cap issuers that are undervalued, under-covered or seeking European institutional capital, with historical client concentration in biotech/pharma and mining/resources. Revenue is generated through monthly consulting fees (6,000 CHF per engagement, approximately $10,550 CAD) supplemented by equity compensation such as stock options granted to the principal. Customer acquisition is referral-driven and network-based, leveraging a 19-year-old network of high-net-worth individuals, family offices, fund managers and business leaders across Canada, Europe, Africa and South America.

Westmount operates from a single Geneva office (Rue De-Candolle 9), runs 11-50 personnel, and extends its reach through a collaborative partner network rather than organic headcount build-out. It is privately held, founder-led, and self-financed with no disclosed funding rounds or institutional investors.
