La Caisse and BII Halt DPW Investments Amid CEO Epstein Ties (2/12/2026)

La Caisse, Quebec’s second-largest pension fund with a 45% stake in DP World Canada, suspended further investment with DP World following the exposure of CEO Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem’s ties to Jeffrey Epstein. British International Investment (BII) of the United Kingdom has joined, suspending its investments in the Dubai-based logistics giant. DP World, which runs global ports and logistics facilities outside the U.S., including the Port of Jebel Ali, is managing its response. The Canadian and UK investors are reportedly seeking actions to address the misconduct allegations. Sulayem, whose name was redacted from Epstein-related files until recently, was revealed in correspondence with Epstein from 2007 and shared a “torture” video with him. These disclosures followed a congressional probe that re-released the files. La Caisse had planned to invest $3.7 billion with DP World through 2026, including projects like the Montreal container terminal joint venture announced in September 2025.
