Four Canadian pension funds ranked among top 10 globally for governance, sustainability, and reslience
September 11, 2024
Four of Canada's largest pension funds have been recognized among the top 10 global pension funds for excellence in governance, sustainability and resilience (GSR).
This ranking comes from a recent report by Global SWF, a leading data platform that assesses the practices of state-owned sovereign wealth funds and public pension funds.
Notably, the Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec and the British Columbia Investment Management Corporation achieved perfect scores in all categories. The Canada Pension Plan Investment Board and the Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan also performed exceptionally well, each securing a 96% score.
This evaluation considers 25 elements spanning governance, sustainability and resilience, with the average score among funds rising to 61% in 2024 from 60% the previous year.
Looking ahead, expectations are high that Canada’s Maple 8 funds will achieve a near-perfect overall GSR score, setting a standard for smaller pensions and sovereign funds.
