TORONTO (July 30, 2026) – The Investment Management Corporation of Ontario (“IMCO”) today announced that it has been selected to provide investment management services to the City of Hamilton, supporting the long-term sustainability of the City's pension obligations.

“The City of Hamilton's decision reflects the strength of our investment platform. We provide our clients with an end-to-end, cost-effective investment solution,” said Bert Clark, President and CEO, IMCO.

Following an evaluation process, IMCO was selected to manage approximately $300 million in assets for the City of Hamilton. The mandate consolidates three legacy plans supporting more than 1,000 retirees, deferred members and beneficiaries. The mandate is focused specifically on legacy pension funds, which are distinct from its “open” pension fund managed separately by another manager. IMCO will work with the City on onboarding and investment decision-making.

With the addition of the City of Hamilton, IMCO continues to expand its role as a trusted partner to public sector institutions across Ontario. IMCO provides its clients with access to asset mix advisory services, a full range of asset classes and comprehensive risk, portfolio management and reporting services, all on a cost-recovery basis.

IMCO's growing roster of clients includes:

• Ontario Pension Board (“OPB”), administrator of the Public Service Pension Plan
• Workplace Safety and Insurance Board (WSIB), Insurance and Loss of Retirement Income funds
• WISE Trust Pension Plan, administrator of the WSIB Employees’ Pension Plan
• Provincial Judges’ Pension Board, administrator of the Provincial Judges’ Pension Plan
• Ontario's Pension Benefits Guarantee Fund (PBGF)
• City of Ottawa, administrator of the OC Transpo Employees’ Pension Plan
• Tarion Warranty Corporation’s Guarantee Fund (Tarion)
• Ontario Clean Water Agency’s (OCWA) reserve fund

“Many Ontario public sector organizations whose core mandate is not investing continue to manage public funds directly. But, in an increasingly complex investment environment, more are recognizing the value of joining IMCO,” continued Clark.

“Expert governance, strong liquidity and risk management, and high-quality reporting and disclosure are essential to managing public funds effectively.”
