As a Board/Investment Committee member, your organization will gain from my extensive expertise with investment-related companies, pension funds, and trusts. I offer a proven track record and profound understanding of board governance, further fortified by valuable insights acquired through the ICD.D program.
With a proven track record in strategic and dynamic investment decision-making as the Chief Investment Officer of a large Pension Fund, I offer guidance aimed at optimizing investment portfolios. Currently advising on over $50 billion in client assets, my advice is centered on leveraging current market insights, managing risks effectively, and aligning investments with specific goals and objectives.
A conventional approach to investment strategies and managers typically yields conventional results. Based on my experience, while conventional methods are straightforward to implement, success in considering alternative strategies or private market investments demands an unconventional approach. My advisory services are geared towards delivering substantial value by advising on alternative and private market investment strategies and funds.

With over 40 years of experience in leading institutional asset management firms, I have had the privilege of working with many competent plan sponsors and their related teams. Robert Cultraro is among the very best of that leadership group – always putting the interests of retirees and plan participants in the forefront of his efforts. His knowledge of plan objectives and the solutions available to meet those objectives is outstanding.

I’ve known and worked with Robert for several years, first as a volunteer at CFA Society Toronto and later in my role as CEO. Robert is a strategic and clear thinker and is very focused on achieving outcomes on the issues that matter most. He has a “listen-first” mentality and seeks to build consensus among all stakeholders while ensuring that decisions get made effectively and in a timely manner. CFA Society Toronto could not have achieved its successes without his contributions, wise counsel and unwavering support.
Frederick Pinto
CEO CFA Society Toronto
I worked with Robert for the last 8 years and he not only consistently delivered top tier performance results as the Chief Investment Officer, but he had a steadfast commitment to integrity, is a great leader, strategic thinker, and a very effective Committee Chair.
