Alberta Investment Management Corporation

Alberta Investment Management Corporation (AIMCo) is a Canadian institutional asset manager with private-market exposure that includes the management of legacy venture investments. Venture capital is not a primary mandate; the firm's principal activities span discretionary management across public equities, fixed income, real estate, infrastructure, renewable resources, and private equity. It was established as a Crown corporation on 1 January 2008 and is wholly owned by the Province of Alberta while operating independently of its government.

AIMCo manages more than $160 billion in assets on behalf of Alberta-based pension, endowment, insurance, and government funds, including the Alberta Heritage Savings Trust Fund, the Local Authorities Pension Plan, and the Special Forces Pension Plan. It serves approximately 375,000 members of provincial public pension and retirement plans and ranks among Canada's top eight pension funds. The firm employs between 501 and 1,000 professionals and maintains offices in Edmonton, where it is headquartered, alongside Calgary, Toronto, London, and Luxembourg.

Investment decision-making integrates material sustainability factors, a practice the firm frames as a means of identifying opportunities and mitigating risk within long-horizon portfolios. The stated mandate is superior long-term investment results for the retirement security of Albertans. For candidates with private-markets or venture backgrounds, relevant work sits within a multi-asset institutional framework rather than a dedicated fund.
