Partnering with indigenous communities

We wish to acknowledge that CIBC Asset Management’s headquarters in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, is located on the traditional territory occupied by many nations, including the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishinaabe, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and the Wendat peoples and is now home to many diverse First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples. We also acknowledge that Toronto is covered by Treaty 13 with the Mississaugas of the Credit.

CIBC Asset Management’s headquarters in Montréal, Quebec, Canada, is located on the traditional territory occupied by the Kanien’kehà:ka, a place that has long served as a site of meeting and exchange amongst many First Nations including the Kanien’kehá:ka of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, Huron/Wendat, Abenaki, and Anishinaabeg. 

With this, we respect the longstanding relationships of the past, present and future that Indigenous Nations have to these lands, as they are the original caretakers.

As an Indigenous community considers aligning their investments with their mission and values, we recognize the process should be fluid and ever-evolving. This process includes establishing an investment framework that aligns with the community culture.  Our Indigenous Markets and Sustainable Investment teams are experienced in providing comprehensive financial solutions to Indigenous communities across Canada.
