Wealth Management and Insurance Reporter

Clare O’Hara is an award-winning journalist. She covers wealth management and insurance as a reporter for The Globe and Mail's Report on Business.

Clare began her career as a research reporter at Investment Executive, a national newspaper for financial service industry professionals. Her coverage of Canada's biggest banks blocking the sale of independent investment funds prompted a regulatory investigation in 2022 and led to a Gold SABEW Canada Best in Business Award for Personal Finance and Investing.

She has also been awarded first place at the PMAC Awards for Excellence in Investment Journalism. In 2022, Clare, along with her colleagues, was nominated for a National Newspaper Award for revealing the scant progress from companies that had publicly pledged to improve the diversity of their workforces and combat systemic racism. She has an undergraduate degree in media information from University of Western Ontario and a journalism degree from the University of King’s College in Halifax.
