John Graham – Evolution of the Canadian Model at CPPIB (EP.465)
Description
John Graham is the President and CEO of Canadian Pension Plan Investment Board, or CPPIB, which oversees $730 billion Canadian ($530 billion USD) making it the 7th largest pension fund in the world. Geoffrey Rubin, Chief Investment Strategist at CPPIB, was a past guest on the show describing the Canadian model and that conversation replayed a few weeks ago as part of our CIO Greatest Hits Summer Series.
Our conversation picks up from my conversation with Geoffrey, discussing the evolution of the Canadian model, buzz about Total Portfolio Approach, onset of global competition, and its impact. We discuss John’s leadership approach to leverage the benefits of CPPIB’s size alongside the challenges of doing so across the internal team, external partnerships, global offices, and governance structure.
