With over 8 years of experience in the financial industry, I am a passionate and driven portfolio manager and podcast co-host.

I currently work as a portfolio manager at RBC Dominion Securities, one of Canada's leading full-service investment firms. I am proud to be part of a team that provides comprehensive wealth management solutions to individuals, families, and businesses across the country. In addition to my role at RBC, I also co-host a podcast called Reformed Millennials, where I share my insights and opinions on the latest trends and topics that matter to millennials and investors.

I work with you and your family to build your portfolio and develop a stable recurring income for your lifetime and that of your loved ones.We try to make that income tax efficient, so that we have as much after-tax income in your pocket to provide you with a comfortable retirement. For your non-registered monies, we generate tax preferred income through Canadian dividends that receive the dividend tax credit.As an example, there is a family I work with that receives about $100,000 in Canadian dividends every year from their joint account. Of this amount, $50,000 is taxed in each spouse's tax return along with their RRIFs and government pensions. As such, they pay very little taxes and have almost all of that income for their living needs. The dividends are of Canadian companies that are common shares and preferred shares. The common shares are of large dominant businesses with stable earnings enough to fund the dividends; like banks, telecoms, pipelines/utilities, insurance companies, etc.These companies are the type that clients are generally very comfortable with holding. Although the common share prices can fluctuate up and down through time, they have typically paid dividends for more than 50 years and are ones I feel can continue to pay well into the future. In addition to common shares, we hold higher quality Canadian preferred shares to generate tax preferred income and stability to your portfolio.We structure your personal investments to act like a pension. We use a fund to hold up to a year of cash needs. From this fund we take regular monthly withdrawals and automate transfers to your bank account every month. We then scoup up the dividends to top up the fund.As we want you to have a well diversified portfolio, we hold bonds and foreign stocks in tax registered accounts, like an RRSP, RRIF or TFSA.I do more than just managing investments. I provide estate planning to make sure your estate will pass to your spouse, children and other loved ones in a tax efficient way. And through financial planning, we want to make sure your financial situation doesn't get derailed if "life happens".The biggest value some say I provide, is that you and your family have someone who is experienced and knowedgeable in financial matters to help you, your spouse and children (especially after you have passed away) throughout your lives.I look forward to hearing from you:Office Tel: 604-288-2083Toll free: 1-855-855-9267 Extension 2Office Email: steve@lycosasset.comKindest regards,Steve Nyvik, BBA, MBA, CIM, CFP, R.F.P.

I am an Institutional Debt Market Architect with more than 17 years of experience designing the valuation, liquidity, and recovery protocols that banks, credit unions, fintech lenders, and private credit funds rely on to make high-stakes decisions. I’ve advised on, analyzed, or helped broker over $100 billion in performing and non-performing receivables across consumer, commercial, auto, BNPL, mortgage, and specialty finance asset classes. My work sits at the intersection of portfolio valuation, lending risk, distressed-asset strategy, and AI-driven recovery intelligence. I help institutions understand the true condition of their receivables, uncover hidden risk, and translate complex credit dynamics into clear, actionable decisions. When lenders need to determine whether to hold, recover, restructure, or sell an asset, I’m the person they call. As Director of Portfolio Liquidity & Asset Disposition at Fitzgerald Advisors, I architect and execute loan-sale strategies, oversee due diligence, and structure NPL and charged-off debt transactions that maximize proceeds while maintaining regulatory integrity. I also build the technology that powers modern receivables strategy. I created Debt Catalyst, an AI-driven valuation and liquidation-curve engine used by professional debt buyers and investors. I developed Bank Watch Pro, a real-time intelligence platform that interprets FDIC and NCUA call-report data to identify institutional credit risk, NPL trends, charge-off exposure, and early-warning indicators. Across my ventures, I focus on one mission: turning distressed receivables, delinquency, and charge-offs into liquidity, clarity, and competitive advantage for financial institutions. I provide expert commentary on: Distressed portfolio valuation & credit-risk analysis NPL and charged-off debt sales Fintech lending trends & BNPL credit performance Bank & credit union financial health (FDIC/NCUA analytics) AI in collections, segmentation, and liquidation modeling Regulatory and compliance implications in debt markets I don’t follow the debt markets — I architect them. And I use that experience to help lenders, investors, and agencies make smarter, faster, and more profitable decisions.

I am the co-founder and Senior Portfolio Manager of Divita Capital and the Divita Value-Growth Fund, where I manage a concentrated portfolio of long-term compounding businesses. My focus is on value investing, business valuation, and capital allocation — particularly on how reinvestment decisions and management’s choices drive shareholder returns over time. I am also the author of Wall Street’s Blind Spots: A Unique Perspective on Value Investing, Valuation and Capital Allocation (2025). In the book, I challenge conventional valuation frameworks and highlight the blind spots even sophisticated investors often miss. My goal is to give readers a practical, common-sense approach to understanding whether a company is truly compounding value, drawing on my day-to-day experience as a fund manager. Over the course of my career, I have worked across investment banking, corporate finance, and asset management, analyzing global equities across various sectors. I hold the Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) designation and combine rigorous financial analysis with a contrarian mindset. I enjoy making complex investing concepts accessible to a wide audience. I regularly speak and write about valuation, capital allocation strategies, and the behavioral biases that influence markets — always with the goal of helping investors and entrepreneurs think differently about long-term value creation. Living and working in Guatemala gives me a distinctive international perspective. I frequently engage with audiences in both Latin America and the U.S., and I aim to help investors, entrepreneurs, and executives think differently. Whether I am explaining why traditional DCF models often mislead, discussing how to assess a company’s reinvestment profile, or sharing lessons from managing my own fund, I bring clarity, practical frameworks, and a passion for long-term investing to every conversation.
