The Alberta Investment Management Corp. is appointing Mark Wiseman as a board director and the chair of its board of directors, effective July 1, 2020.<\/p>\n

Wiseman will replace current chair Richard Bird, who will be completing his second three-year term on the AIMCo\u2019s board. In order to ensure a smooth transition, Bird will be staying on as a consultant to the board for the transition period.<\/p>\n

\u201cOn behalf of my fellow directors, I welcome Mark Wiseman to AIMCo\u2019s board,\u201d said Bird, in a press release. \u201cMark\u2019s accomplishments in investment management, his strategic thinking and leadership make him an excellent choice to chair this board.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI look forward to working with my fellow directors as AIMCo continues to serve its clients for the long term,\u201d said Wiseman. \u201cI, along with members of the board and employees of AIMCo, would like to thank Richard for his service to the province during his two three-year terms. He has offered a steady and experienced hand in guiding the organization\u2019s strong governance and investment decision-making.\u201d<\/p>\n
