Quebec Battles Deficit with Generations Fund

The video discusses Quebec's Generations Fund, a sovereign wealth fund established 10 years ago. Managed by the Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec, the fund aims to grow from its current $8 billion to $20 billion by 2020. The fund's returns are used to offset net debt, as long as the investment income exceeds the cost of new debt. In 2015, the fund's investment income was 9%, while the cost of new debt was 3%, making it financially prudent to continue this strategy.
