Garrett Blakely

Senior Private Banker
National Bank Financial Banking Center

As a Senior Private Banker, Garrett Blakely provides tailored wealth management solutions to a select group of clients. Mr. Blakely works with clients, their families and their advisors to deliver sophisticated banking, personalized short- and long-term lending solutions and flexible credit packages. As needed, he will draw on an extensive team of wealth management specialists who can provide specific tax, estate and business owner planning, among other services.
Because he works with a relatively small number of clients, Mr. Blakely is able to ensure discrete, responsive service and the level of attention his clients require at all stages of their financial lives. 

Mr. Blakely’s financial services career spans nearly two decades, and has included roles in private banking and financial planning, where he worked with diversified businesses, including agriculture, manufacturing, energy services, medical professionals and other specialized client groups, to provide both lending and financial planning advice and counsel.

Mr. Blakely holds his Personal Financial Planner designation, and holds a Bachelor of Management  degree from the University of Lethbridge,  a Master of Business Administration from Vancouver Island University and a Masters of Science from the University of Hertfordshire. 
Originally from Medicine Hat, Mr. Blakely now calls Calgary home. Away from the office he enjoys spending time with his wife and daughter travelling, at their family cabin and getting in as many rounds of golf as he can.
