CPP Investments CEO: The Canadian Model, Public vs Private and Investing for 22 Million Canadians

Canada's pension funds have become a blueprint for institutional investing worldwide, and John Graham runs the largest of them. Nicolai Tangen sits down with the CEO of CPP Investments, manager of $800 billion on behalf of 22 million Canadians, for a conversation spanning strategy and leadership. They explore the celebrated "Canadian model" and what imitators get wrong, why Graham calls diversification "an act of humility," and how CPP weighs private markets, the US, and China. A scientist before he was an investor, Graham reflects on leading through COVID, AI's uncertain role in investment decisions, and his belief that investing is "quantitative art" rather than science. Tune in!
