Your Plan Matters


Having access to a financially secure retirement has a significant impact on the wellbeing of our members. Research has shown that in addition to the financial security to the individual, defined benefit pensions provide a measurable, positive impact on the social and economic health of the communities in which we live and work. This makes defined benefit pension plans, like OMERS, essential.
