Canadian pension plan fiduciaries are facing growing expectations to understand, assess, and manage climate‑related financial risks and opportunities. With scrutiny increasing, as highlighted by recent legal cases, fiduciaries must ensure their governance and investment practices reflect emerging legal standards.

Join us for a 90-minute roundtable in Toronto for a rare opportunity to engage directly with one of Canada’s leading pension law experts: Randy Bauslaugh. He will outline the key findings from his legal opinion, Climate Change: Legal Implications for Canadian Pension Plan Fiduciaries and Policy‑Makers, and explore what prudent fiduciary oversight looks like in a climate‑affected investment environment.

This interactive session brings together senior pension leaders for a candid, practical discussion on how to translate legal expectations into effective action. Participants will gain clarity on their obligations, share experiences with peers, and identify opportunities to strengthen climate‑related governance within their own plans. Participants will leave better equipped to navigate the complexities of climate‑related fiduciary duty and to demonstrate prudent, forward‑looking governance to their stakeholders.
