About the Company

Global pension fund manager and investor

La Caisse manages the funds for Québec’s public and parapublic pension and insurance plans and invests globally to generate long-term returns that support the province’s economy. It allocates capital across asset classes like private equity, stocks, bonds, private credit, real estate, and infrastructure, using subsidiaries such as Ivanhoé Cambridge and Otéra Capital to build a diversified portfolio. It is government-backed with a mandate to balance returns and public development, operating with a global network of offices and a governance framework focused on transparency and responsibility. Its goal is to maximize long-term value for Québec’s pension and insurance plan members while promoting economic growth in Québec and advancing climate-related investments, including a carbon-neutral portfolio by 2050 and about $400 billion in climate action investments by 2030.
