As a pension plan that invests in high-quality assets and pays billions of dollars per year in stableand secure retirement benefits to members across Ontario, OMERS has an impact that reaches beyond payments to individual members and into their communities. Two reports, developed for OMERS by the Canadian Centre for Economic Analysis (CANCEA), an independent socio-economic research firm, illustrate the economic contribution and social value generated across Ontario by pension plans such as OMERS. This session will provide highlights from this work, including how access to a secure and stable pension helps strength the bond between employees and employers, and supports retention and productivity.
