Webinar: What is the CPPIB really up to?
The Canadian Pension Plan Investment Board (CPPIB) manages a large and rapidly growing fund, one of the largest pensions in the world. Over the years, the CPPIB has moved from real assets to equities, and from investments in Canadian infrastructure to foreign investments. With over $539B of our public pension at stake, we need to be aware of “what the CPPIB is up to.”
Panelists speak about the CPPIB and its investment in the military arms, mining, Israeli war crimes, and privatization of life sustaining public infrastructure including water in the Global South, and other alarming investments. The discussion also delved into what can be done to hold the CPPIB accountable for the public pension funds entrusted to it.
Moderator: Bianca Mugyenyi, Canadian Foreign Policy Institute
Panelists:
– Denise Mota Dau , Sub-Regional Secretary for Public Services International (PSI)
– Ary Girota, President of SINDÁGUA-RJ (Water purification, distribution and sewage workers’ union of Niterói) in Brazil.

– Kevin Skerrett, co-author of The Contradictions of Pension Fund Capitalism and Senior Research Officer (Pensions) with the Canadian Union of Public Employees in Ottawa.
