Who We Serve
Who We Are
Hi, I’m Mohamed Konate — founder of Elite Harvest Financial and the personal finance platform MyRateCompass.ca, trusted by thousands of Canadians every month.
After years of helping Canadians compare financial products and understand their options, I realized something important: families need more than information—they need personalized strategies and someone they can trust to guide them through life’s biggest financial decisions.
That’s why I created Elite Harvest Financial. Our mission is simple: to help families in Ontario make informed, stress-free decisions about mortgages, life and health insurance, and long-term financial security.
With local expertise, access to over 60 lenders and top insurers, and a commitment to transparency, we deliver solutions designed around your goals—not cookie-cutter advice.
