Stars
Empower Retirement US
Empower Retirement US has become a market leader in US defined contribution plans, holding roughly 16% market share of DC assets (~USD 1.2 trillion AUM) by late 2025 after key acquisitions and organic growth, driving record net inflows in 2024–25.
High demand for workplace savings and financial wellness services keeps revenue growth strong (mid-teens CAGR 2022–25), but Empower needs sizable capex for digital integration—estimated USD 300–500m over 2026–27—to scale and fully realize synergies for Great-West Lifeco.
Wealthsimple Fintech Platform
Wealthsimple, a Power Corporation of Canada portfolio star, grew active Canadian accounts to about 3.5 million and assets under administration to roughly CAD 25 billion by end-2025, dominating millennial and Gen Z segments with a 40%+ share of new retail investors.
The platform moved beyond trading into banking, mortgages, and tax filing, driving product diversification and revenue mix expansion while still facing high CAC near CAD 400 per funded account.
Market leadership and network effects position Wealthsimple to become a cash cow as cohort monetization rises and ARPU climbs from roughly CAD 60 annually toward CAD 150 over five years, assuming retention holds.
Rockefeller Capital Management
Rockefeller Capital Management has grown revenue and AUM rapidly, reaching about $120 billion AUM and ~20% YoY advisor-team growth by 2024, driven by wins in the US ultra-high-net-worth segment and elite advisor recruitment.
It sits in a high-growth, niche quadrant of wealth management, using Rockefeller’s brand prestige to capture share in top-tier clients and compete in North American hubs like NYC, Miami, and Toronto.
Continued capital allocation—likely tens to low hundreds of millions—remains necessary to fund aggressive recruiting and geographic expansion; recent 2023–24 investments targeted client acquisition and platform scale.
Power Sustainable Infrastructure
Power Sustainable Infrastructure sits in Stars: rapid growth in renewables and sustainable private equity, driven by global capital flows into decarbonization; assets under management reached about CAD 12.5 billion in 2025, with revenue growth over 20% year-on-year.
It competes in a high-growth market with rising institutional ESG demand; pipeline includes wind, solar, and storage projects needing continuous capital but offering long-duration cash flows and low carbon intensity.
Strong market position inside Power Corporation makes it a strategic growth engine; still requires project financing and M&A to scale, supporting group long-term returns and decarbonization targets.
- 2025 AUM ~CAD 12.5B; revenue growth ~20% YoY
- Focus: wind, solar, storage, sustainable private equity
- Needs ongoing capital for development and acquisitions
- High institutional ESG demand; central to group strategy
Sagard Alternative Investments
Sagard Alternative Investments, part of Power Corporation of Canada, grew AUM to about US$22 billion by end-2024 through private credit, private equity, and real estate strategies, capturing strong institutional demand for private-market alpha as alternatives grew ~12% CAGR 2019–2024.
The business burns cash to seed new fund vintages and invest in global expansion, but rising fee-related earnings and market share gains make Sagard a Star in Power Corp’s BCG matrix.
- 2024 AUM ~US$22B
- Alternatives market CAGR ~12% (2019–2024)
- High growth, rising fee income
- Requires cash for new vintages/global expansion

Operating in a mature market with ~1–2% annual volume growth, Canada Life runs low marketing spend and high expense-efficiency, supporting steady free cash flow generation.
Cash from Canada Life funds Power Corp’s CAD 0.80 annual dividend per share (2024 payout) and bankrolls higher-growth assets like international wealth management.
IG Wealth Management
IG Wealth Management, Power Corporation’s premier advisor-led firm, manages roughly CAD 100 billion in client assets (2024), showing strong brand loyalty and retention in Canada’s mature private wealth market.
It targets high-margin holistic financial planning over volume growth, delivering steady fee income and cross‑sell opportunities across insurance and retirement products.

Mackenzie Investments
Mackenzie Investments generates steady cash for Power Corporation, managing CA$176 billion AUM in 2024 and delivering double-digit operating margins in its Canadian mutual fund and ETF business.
Passive investing growth pressures fees, yet Mackenzie’s wide retail/institutional distribution and scale sustain margins around 12–15%, keeping net cash flow strong.
With low capital reinvestment needs, Mackenzie’s free cash supports Power Corp’s strategic spend and debt service, contributing materially to corporate liquidity.
Irish Life Assurance
Irish Life Assurance is Ireland’s leading life insurer and pension provider, holding roughly 30–35% market share in life and pensions as of fiscal 2024, operating in a mature, consolidated market where growth is modest.
The unit prioritizes cost control and digital transformation—reducing operating expense ratios toward mid-teens—and focuses on margin protection over market-share expansion.
Irish Life delivers steady dividends to Great-West Lifeco, contributing an estimated €200–€300m annually in distributable earnings in 2023–24, acting as a reliable international cash cow.

It earns steady fee income and premiums—contributing to Power Corporations liquidity with low capex needs; 2024 reinsurance segment pretax earnings were ~CAD 600m, supporting group capital ratios.
- Global reach, strong credit (Aa3/A+ 2025)
