    [SINGAPORE] La Caisse, one of the largest pension funds globally, aims to invest C$15 billion (S$13.9 billion) in the Asia-Pacific over the next three years – more than half of which will be in infrastructure, said its president and chief executive Charles Emond.

    Of the total investment, infrastructure is expected to take up C$9 billion. Credit and real estate will account for C$3 billion each.
