The authors review the eight largest public pension funds in Canada. These funds are an important source of retirement income for Canadians. They are also significant investors, with net assets under management of over $1 trillion. The authors outline the investment strategies of the funds and how they interact with financial institutions and participate in financial markets. They also discuss the ways in which the funds’ risk-management frameworks could contribute to financial system stability and how they minimize potential vulnerabilities.2016-06-09T10:30:21+00:00enLarge Canadian Public Pension Funds: A Financial System Perspective2016-06-09Timing of Banks’ Loan Loss Provisioning During the Crisis
