Daniel Fournier to step down as CEO of CDPQ's real estate arm

Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec (CDPQ) said Daniel Fournier, chairman and CEO of Ivanhoé Cambridge, the pension system's real estate investment arm, will retire in October. Fournier has headed Ivanhoé's operations and investment activity since 2010. During this time, he led the consolidation of CDPQ's real estate affiliates and oversaw deal volume of nearly $100 billion. Fournier will be replaced as CEO by Nathalie Palladitcheff. She joined Ivanhoé in 2015 as executive vice president and CFO and was last year appointed president. Montréal-based Ivanhoé holds $65 billion in assets and interests in more than 1,000 buildings.
