 Teachers' Private Capital, the private investment arm of the CAN$106bn Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan, has opened an office in London, its first office outside of Canada.
Teachers' Private Capital has approximately CAN$4bn invested in European private equity and infrastructure, and has been investing directly in companies and funds in Europe for more than 15 years.
Jim Leech, senior vice president, Teachers' Private Capital, said, 'Our London office enables us to scout direct private equity investments as well as partnership commitment opportunities.
'The office will also give Teachers' better access to our portfolio companies. Although we initially invested only as a minority shareholder with partners, as the fund has grown, we have moved to assume larger positions,' Leech continued.
