GPFA Announces Regional Co-leads for Canada!

As we continue to grow, we are excited to announce that Charles Lesaux, MBA, Managing Director, Funding Capital Markets & Credit Investments at British Columbia Investment Management Corporation (BCI), and Ivoneke Taylor, Principal, Global Trading at Ontario Teachers'​ Pension Plan (OTPP), will be volunteering their time to co-lead the Global Peer Financing Association (GPFA) in Canada.

Canada currently makes up nearly 50% of GPFA’s membership base, and Charles and Ivoneke will play a key role in strengthening engagement and collaboration among our Canadian members while ensuring alignment with the global GPFA community.

GPFA is a volunteer-led, non-profit association for beneficial owners, by beneficial owners. Founded by four North American pension funds, GPFA has rapidly expanded to include many of the world’s largest institutional investors.

On behalf of the GPFA Board of Directors and all GPFA members, thank you Charles, Ivoneke, and the teams at OTPP and BCI for volunteering your time and expertise to support our growing buyside community!
