“As CIBC continues to expand our CDR platform, we’re making it easier for Canadian investors to get direct exposure to the world’s biggest companies,” said Christian Exshaw, Managing Director and Head, CIBC Global Markets and Direct Financial Services. “We’re thrilled with the strong response we’ve had to our CDRs and are committed to delivering innovative solutions to help investors achieve their ambitions.”
