Well rooted in Québec, the Caisse is also among the world’s large international investors. Its achievements reflect the depth and diversity of its expertise. Today, the Caisse is a renowned, sought-after investor as well as a first-rate institution in Québec, Canada and worldwide. It is one of the world’s ten largest real estate asset managers and Canada’s leading private equity investor.

It is widely renowned as a result of:

• Its extensive investment experience and sound business practices;

For instance, the Caisse sponsors The International Economic Forum of the Americas/Conference of Montréal, which is aimed primarily at facilitating the exchange of information and encouraging open discussion on today’s major economic issues. In addition, the Caisse generally sends a representative to the World Economic Forum Meeting in Davos. Each year, this activity unites the leading decision-makers from the private and public sectors to discuss the main political, economic and social issues facing the world.

It recently became a founding member of the International Centre for Pension Management (ICPM), a group devoted to research, mainly in pension fund management.
