About us

The CAAT goal is simple: provide Canadian workplaces with access to secure, sustainable pensions. It’s for members. For employers. For lifetime in retirement.

At CAAT, we make retirement better for Canadians by offering secure workplace pensions and retirement income for life.

Originally created to support the Ontario college system, the CAAT Plan now proudly serves more than 500 participating employers (and growing) in 20 industries including the for-profit, non-profit, and broader public sectors. It currently has more than 102,000 active and retired members (and growing).

The CAAT Plan is respected for its pension and investment management expertise and focus on long-term stability and benefit security.

At January 1, 2024, the Plan was 124% funded on a going-concern basis.
