Finance (general)
...Nous determinons la valeur des placements avec l'assistance de notre gardien de valeur et du gestionnaire (et, dans certains cas, de son propre gardien de valeur, agent de transfert, verificateur ou autre).
I googled this term and there weren't that many hits (around 1,000), so I'm wondering if maybe it's an unusual term for a pretty usual profession.

securities custodian
This term appears to be specific to Québécois. I found the following document where the term is translated as "securities custodian."
"La Banque Nationale a d'ailleurs pris les devants et mis en place des règles pour protéger ses clients qui investissent dans des hedge funds. Elle a mis en place une structure qui lui assure la propriété complète des positions. C'est-à-dire qu'aucun fonds des clients n'est directement investi dans les fonds de couverture sans que le fiduciaire du fonds (la Banque Nationale) qui agit alors comme gardien de valeur et agent de transfert ne soit impliqué dans les transactions."

"The National Bank has taken the lead and implemented rules to protect its clients who invest in hedge funds. It has set up a structure that ensures it has full ownership of positions. In other words, no customer's money is invested directly in hedge funds without the fund trustee (the National Bank), which then acts as securities custodian and transfer agent, being involved in the transactions."
