Combining financial and societal returns
When we invest your savings, we do it to make them grow for you, for your retirement and to contribute to Québec's prosperity. And most of all, it's to make a positive impact on society. That's what we call our societal returns.
Our financial returns and our social returns go hand in hand. They guide our actions and our decisions. By combining them, we can make our society more sustainable.
Our societal returns
Based on the mission set out in our incorporating act and acting on this conviction, we measure our impact on society according to six societal returns that we defined based on specific United Nations[1] sustainable development goals. And we’re taking action and setting the bar high because there’s an urgent need to act.
With the housing crisis in full swing, climate change on the rise and our local economy in a fragile state, it’s more important than ever to take control of the present so we can build the Québec of tomorrow.
Together, we can make a difference.
Our achievements over the past year prove that.
