Managing Partner and Founder · ClearWealth Accounting Advisors · Toronto, Ontario
Razi Khan is the Managing Partner and Founder of ClearWealth Accounting Advisors, an accounting and tax firm on McCowan Road in Toronto working with individuals, sole proprietors and owner-managed corporations across Canada.
He has spent more than two decades advising Canadians on money, and has built businesses himself: he founded Pegasus Mortgage Lending Centre in 2008, in the middle of a financial crisis, and started ClearWealth to give small businesses the kind of accounting attention usually reserved for larger ones. That background shapes how the firm works — most of its clients are entrepreneurs, and most of their questions are really questions about the business rather than about the return.
His focus at ClearWealth is the work where the decision matters more than the paperwork: how an owner should pay themselves, whether incorporating is worth it this year, what a corporate structure does to a tax bill, and what to do when the CRA writes. Having spent years in mortgage lending and real estate, he is particularly used to files where the personal and the corporate side have to be read together.
He holds a Bachelor of Applied Science from the University of Toronto and works from the firm's Scarborough office.
