The result fell short of the fund’s benchmark portfolios’ return of 10.9 per cent.
The fund says public equities, especially in the U.S. and China, delivered gains despite geopolitical and trade-related headwinds in its fourth quarter., while investments in private equities, infrastructure and credit also helped.
The strengthening of other currencies against the loonie also boosted results.
CPP Investments chief executive John Graham says the fund remains on a solid financial footing and is well-positioned to deliver long-term value for current and future generations of Canadians.
“Our portfolio – diversified across sectors, themes, asset types and geographic markets – is built for the long term. And while we’re not immune to short-term market shifts, our strategy is designed to remain resilient despite periodic fluctuations,” Graham said in a statement.
