Concentration in Concentrated Time
With support from CCCJ, the Ontario Trade and Investment Office Tokyo, a Corporate Member, is hosting an event, "Concentration in Concentrated Time".
Event Overview:
North American pension funds have grown their assets more quickly than their global peers over the past decade. The strengthening U.S. dollar and a greater emphasis on investing in global equities have brought this, too. Responding to broad social and economic forces, most of these pension funds and other institutional investors have shown strong interest in Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) issues in shaping their strategies for North America and globally. Our speakers will introduce the trends, key topics, and concerns shared by institutional investors in recent years.
With that background, we are delighted to introduce the unique value-oriented investment approach developed by Sprucegrove Investment Management Ltd., a Canadian institutional investment manager with a proven track record of successfully managing U.S. and Canadian institutional assets in global equity markets for over 35 years.
