Robert specializes in good corporate governance and best business practices with a proven track record of excelling in fund management and financial investment returns. Robert is an experienced CEO who focuses on creating wealth sovereignty for Indigenous Nations in Canada and globally.

Robert has been called a “Natural CEO, with a gift for making people money. He started out by launching and purchasing businesses in a variety of industries including forestry and retail which led to a lucrative career in forestry and investing.  With proven success in growing businesses, he was sought after to take on one CEO position after another, which involved real world CEO training with indigenous Nations through the Westcap Management BRIDG Program based on Harvard’s American Indian Economic Development Project.  

Through numerous successes, Robert became recognized as an accomplished investor and fund manager, invited to be the trustee of a $32 million dollar fund, where he demonstrated his ability to assess, strategize, and execute with precision and achieve measurable results. From there, he accepted two CEO positions with Wahpeton Dakota Developments and Montreal Lake Business Ventures. For the past seven years, he has led Montreal Lake Business Ventures fund to an average 28.4% return annually.

Beyond Robert’s financial successes, his passion for working with indigenous Nations led him to Turtle Lake where he was adopted into a Turtle Lake Nakota Family. This began his work with the First Nations where he guided more effective governance practices and created social community funds for cultural revitalization with a special focus on programs to keep youth away from gangs and drugs. These programs foster fundamental indigenous values that connect hunting, fishing, trapping, and gathering to the land as well as introduce youths to cultural activities such as sewing and creating mukluks (traditional moccasins), maintaining community gardens, protecting fish spawning streams and identifying and caring for grave sites. His passion for creating social impact through business makes him a natural ally and partner to The Four Cups vision.

— Robert Fincati

I look at the needs of society to see how we can utilize our strengths ways to provide what’s truly needed, and create forward momentum. The more we can heal and serve communities, the more we dissolve separation and facilitate collaboration. There’s an art to being a leader and making decisions. Those can be tough decisions. It’s important to be humble. We must develop relationships by first understanding ourselves and each of the players to see how we can work through each other’s interest. I facilitate my teams in laying all interests on the table, and figure out how to have everyone win and work collaboratively to take the mission, vision, and objectives into full execution.
