We manage over $70-billion on behalf of our public sector clients. We are the only fund manager in Ontario specifically designed to provide broader public-sector institutions with investment management services.
Our origins trace back to November 2012, when the province examined the investment effectiveness of Ontario’s public-sector pensions and funds. Extensive consultations revealed that asset pooling would reduce investment management costs and enable public sector funds to access a broader range of investment strategies. This would ultimately improve investment returns and sustain pension and benefit security for Ontarians over the long term. Read Facilitating Pooled Asset Management.
Creating a professional asset manager characterized by world-class governance practices and a professional investment team was the answer. Assets under management would be large enough to support investing in a broad range of asset classes at the most competitive costs. Investment decisions would be based solely on seeking the best returns without political influence.
