We are a professional investment corporation managed independently of the Canada Pension Plan by experienced investment professionals drawn from the private sector.

Our job is to invest CPP contributions that are not required to pay current benefits, in a way that maximizes returns without undue risk. The money that we invest today will be needed by the Canada Pension Plan to help pay the pensions of working Canadians who will begin retiring 17 years from now.
