Equities (37 per cent) and real assets (24 per cent) led the Ontario Teachers’ portfolio mix as at June 30, 2025. Within the leading asset classes, private equities (21 per cent) and infrastructure (13 per cent) were the top assets. Public equities decreased two per cent to 12 per cent, while fixed income declined to 24 per cent from 30 per cent in 2024.
The latest results show the ability of the organization’s investment portfolio to generate a positive return while maintaining a cautious position on risk given prevailing market conditions, said Jo Taylor, president and chief executive officer at the Ontario Teachers’, in a press release.
“The total fund return was predominantly driven by our public assets, particularly gold. Our private assets were generally flat to negative in the period reflecting a challenging environment in those asset classes at present. Looking ahead to the remainder of the year, our investment teams remain focused on delivering returns and working with portfolio companies to create value.”
