Voices of RPIA

A LETTER FROM OUR CEO

Richard Pilosof Principal, Chief Executive Officer

Looking back on 2022, I am immensely grateful to our investors and our employees for what we’ve accomplished during the past 13 years, especially with the unique economic conditions we were faced with this year. As a firm, we have experienced incredible growth over the past year, and I am proud of our highly talented professionals who work tirelessly to help our investors. As we continue to grow, my partners and I, along with the rest of the leadership team, have maintained our belief in preserving a flat corporate structure that enables better collaboration, mentorship, and professional development. As the way we work has changed since the pandemic, we are proud of the environment we have created where our team can bring their best every day and have the opportunity to learn from one another when they come into the office. 2022 brought so many exciting new initiatives to RPIA, and I am pleased to highlight a few of them: • Great Place to Work: We are proud to be GPTW certified this year! We had an amazing 94% response rate from the team, allowing us to gain valuable feedback. • RPIA Elevate: Our internal employee engagement program has launched many valuable initiatives that relate to our four pillars: leadership, empathy, accountability, and development. • RP Broad Corporate Bond (Fossil Fuel Exclusion): We launched this strategy as part of our continued partnership with investors to develop bespoke solutions for their investment goals. • Engaging the Next Generation: We hosted an event called The Art of Legacy: Navigating Generational Wealth at the Art Gallery of Ontario featuring Patricia Saputo. • RPIA ACE Program: We launched this program as a complement to our charitable giving. The program stands for Academic and Community Empowerment, and we launched our first scholarship program under this banner. Our goal continues to be developing partnerships with our investors, serving them with excellence, integrity, and transparency as they entrust us with their capital. Our teams help bring this mission to life with a strong dedication to their roles as we continue to think ahead and adapt to the evolving world around us. We believe it is our duty to support and enrich our community, not just with our money but also with our time, talent, and voices as we volunteer, educate, and speak up for what matters. This publication illustrates RPIA’s passion for having an inclusive and open culture, doing good through our work, and empowering our employees as they become leaders in the causes they care about. I hope you enjoy learning more about what we do and how the many voices of RPIA are embracing their talents and speaking up for what they believe in. Best Wishes, Richard Pilosof Principal & CEO, RPIA
