Lou Schizas

Lou Schizas is most well known for his work as an equities analyst for the Canadian specialty channel BNN:Business News Network (formerly Report on Business Television) since its launch in September 1999.

Schizas also holds the Canadian Investment Manager (CIM) designation and is a Fellow of the Canadian Securities Institute.

Although Schizas is a Canadian citizen, he grew up in New York City. He is the son of a Greek-American father and a French-Canadian mother.
