The Financial Services Regulatory Authority of Ontario (FSRA) has announced the appointment of Peggy McCallum (pictured) to its board of directors for a two-year term.
McCallum’s background includes providing legal and governance advice on pensions and employee benefits.
She is former partner and current counsel at Fasken Martineau DuMoulin LLP, where she also served as chair of the pension and employee benefits law group. Prior to this role, she worked as counsel for the Pension Commission of Ontario, the former pension regulator.
McCallum was also a member of the sponsors committee of the Colleges of Applied Arts and Technology (CAAT) jointly sponsored pension plan for over 10 years. She has served multiple terms as chair of the Ontario Bar Association’s Pension and Benefits Section and various committees with the Association of Canadian Pension Management.
Joanne De Laurentiis, chair of the FSRA board, expressed her enthusiasm for McCallum’s appointment, highlighting her extensive background within the sector.
“Peggy is a pension and benefits leader. She has proven expertise in pension and benefits governance, risk management, administration and investment,” said DeLaurentiis. “Her sector experience and her governance experience make her an excellent addition to the FSRA Board.”
Earlier this week, FSRA released its latest service standards scorecard, reporting that it met or exceeded most of its performance targets over the fourth quarter of the 2022-2023 financial year.
