Canadian pension‑fund manager La Caisse (Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec) has struck a strategic partnership with Novisto, a corporate sustainability‑management software provider, and taken a stake in the company to scale its ESG data and reporting infrastructure. The move positions La Caisse to deepen its own climate‑transition work while giving Novisto capital and institutional backing to accelerate its growth in North America and Europe.
Novisto offers an enterprise‑grade platform that centralizes ESG and climate data, including greenhouse‑gas emissions, energy use, supply‑chain risk, and social‑impact metrics, into a single, auditable system. It supports multiple frameworks such as GRI, SASB, TCFD, ISSB, CSRD, and SFDR, with automated workflows for data collection, validation, and audit‑ready disclosure. For large corporates, this reduces the manual effort of compliance while generating high‑quality, decision‑grade data for both internal and external reporting.
For La Caisse, the deal is tightly aligned with its 2025–2030 climate strategy, which targets $400 billion of assets deployed toward climate action by 2030 and a net‑zero‑aligned portfolio by 2050. The partnership gives La Caisse a more systematic way to track emissions and decarbonisation progress across portfolio companies, beyond high‑level disclosures. With several La Caisse‑backed firms already using Novisto, the platform is evolving into a key data layer for the pension manager’s climate‑transition toolkit, enabling more granular risk‑monitoring, scenario‑based oversight, and engagement grounded in actual operational data.
