Over the previous year, the Investment Management Corp. of Ontario, on behalf of the OPB, allocated $924 million to climate solutions investments as part of a $10 billion target between 2020 and 2030. The organization also achieved a 51 per cent reduction in portfolio financed emissions intensity compared to a 2019 baseline. The plan is targeting a 50 per cent reduction by 2030 and achieving a net-zero emissions portfolio by 2050.
The OPB is also creating an interactive online page to engage plan members on the strategic direction of the organization.
“Our members are growing increasingly more engaged with the direction of their pension plan and how we are providing key services and support to them in their retirement planning journey,” said Darwin Bozek, chief executive officer and president at the OPB, in an emailed statement to Benefits Canada. “We’re very pleased to respond to member needs in a modern, and digital-focused manner.”
