After opening with a review of the 1997 CPP reforms that led to the creation of the CPPIB, the presentation will focus on how the CPPIB manages the retirement assets of 16 million Canadians. Investment objectives, success measures, fund governance framework and risk management practices will be presented and discussed. How CPPIB adds value, manages risk and ensures accountability will be illustrated using stylized private equity transactions. The presentation ends by explaining why the CPPIB is not a sovereign wealth fund.
