CALGARY – The Crown corporation that handles public sector pensions and other funds in Alberta says its assets under management surpassed $200 billion this year.
Justin Lord, chief investment officer at AIMCo, says with that scale, its funds can access compelling opportunities across a variety of asset classes.
As of June 30, AIMCO’s assets under management were $210.7 billion, up from $194.7 billion at the end of 2025.
Its balanced fund, a composite of client accounts, saw net investment returns come in at $13.6 billion for the first half of the year for a rate of return of 7.2 per cent.
During that period, the fund was made up of 31 per cent money market and fixed income, 31 per cent private markets and 38 per cent public equities.
AIMCo said in its mid-year report that public equities were the strongest contributor to its performance so far this year, benefiting from resilient corporate earnings and continued strength in artificial intelligence-related sectors and global equity markets.
“We’ve seen the breadth of earnings growth increase, not just within the tech sector in particular, but across both geographies and sectors, with Canada performing very well also,” Lord said in an interview
