Who We Are

BCI was established as an independently managed corporation to place the investment agency at arm’s length from government to avoid potential conflicts that may develop between government policy and the management of public sector trust funds.

BCI uses proxy voting as a tool to drive ESG improvements. Our Guidelines set BCI’s expectations regarding the governance practices of the companies in which we invest as well as how they address environmental and social risks.

The Infrastructure program was established to offer clients the ability to gain long-term exposure to global infrastructure assets.

The Renewable Resource Investment Fund was established to invest in forestry, agriculture, and other renewable assets. In 2020, Infrastructure and Renewable Resources assets were consolidated into the Infrastructure & Renewable Resources programs for efficiency and streamlined reporting.

BCI made its first green bond investment, aligning with our strategy of seeking value-adding sustainable opportunities. To date, we have invested in over $6 billion in sustainability-labelled bonds, underscoring BCI’s commitment to risk-adjusted returns and sustainable investing.

BCI's newly appointed CEO/CIO Gordon J. Fyfe introduced a business plan focusing on enhancing investment strategies, internalizing asset management, and rebuilding BCI’s base, marking the start of BCI's transformation into an active, in-house global asset manager.

QuadReal Property Group, a global real estate investment, development, and management company, was established as a wholly-owned subsidiary of BCI, allowing us to internalize and streamline asset management.

We expanded our credit products with a Private Debt Fund offering clients diversification and superior risk- adjusted returns.

The GPF, an actively managed global equities fund, was introduced to enhance clients’ risk-adjusted returns by combining traditional equity selection and absolute return (AR) strategies. The first AR investment took place in November 2019. The AR strategy aims to generate positive returns regardless of market conditions, improving client returns while protecting their capital.

With the launch of the Funding Program, we made leverage accessible for clients, providing for broader asset mix options and facilitating more diversified portfolios.

As a long-term, global investor, we established a local Private Equity team in the largest global investment hub to foster new relationships and generate additional investment opportunities.

The Funding Program expanded with the issuance of unsecured debt, evolving from short-term repurchase agreements to provide greater liquidity and diversification.

BCI Infrastructure & Renewable Resources team opened its first office outside North America in London, U.K., providing a solid foundation to originate and manage investments in the U.K. and Europe.

We celebrate 25 years of investing with $295B in assets under management. Over the years, we have internalized and diversified our investments across multiple asset classes, transitioning from nearly 90% in Public Equities and Fixed Income funds to now having 53% in diverse Private Markets.
