Board trustees
Meet the Teachers' Pension Board of Trustees.
BC's Teachers' Pension Plan is jointly managed by trustees appointed by the employer partner (the provincial government) and the member partner (BC Teachers' Federation). The trustees themselves appoint a board chair and vice-chair.
The Teachers’ Pension Board of Trustees aims to meet the pension promise to provide retirement income to plan members.
The board also appoints directors to the boards of British Columbia Pension Corporation (which provides benefit administration services) and British Columbia Investment Management Corporation (which provides investment management services).
