CDPQ chief executive Charles Emond says the many contradictory signals confronting investors — the direction of inflation, rates, employment and markets — make the environment challenging.
Emond says this invites the fund to remain vigilant and emphasizes the importance of diversification and adopting a long-term approach.
The fund’s average annualized return over five years stood at 6.0 per cent, while over 10 years it came in at 7.9 per cent.
