Canada expects slow investment growth in 2023 as many pensions are trying to recover from recent loss in returns. As the new year kicks off, pension managers are taking defensive positions in protecting portfolios from further losses. Industry experts recommend that investors remain agile and ready to pivot quickly when opportunities unfold.
