Pension Reform and Design at the Heart of INTEGRIS

Recently, the CEO of the CIBC Mr. Gerry McCaughey, publicly announced that he felt Canadians should reform the Canada Pension Plan to allow for voluntary supplemental contributions so that members could enhance their pension benefits in retirement. This type of innovative thinking traces its origins to an article first published in October 2004 by the CEO of INTEGRIS, Mr. Jean-Pierre Laporte entitled “Reforming the Canada Pension Plan”. As mentioned in the article above, Canadian investors are facing many challenges when it comes to saving for their retirement.
