OTTAWA — Minto Apartment Real Estate Investment Trust has announced that Edward Fu, currently the REIT’s vice-president of finance, has been selected to take on the role of CFO of the REIT.
Fu replaces Julie Morin, who is transitioning to the Minto Group as its CFO.
“Julie was instrumental in the successful initial public offering (IPO) of the REIT in 2018 and its continued growth over the last four years. We’d like to thank Julie for her exceptional commitment and dedication to the REIT,” commented Michael Waters, CEO of the REIT, in a statement.
“The good news is that the REIT will continue to benefit from her vast experience and ongoing support through her continuing role as CFO of the Minto Group.”
Fu, a chartered accountant, has been with the Minto Group for eight years and was heavily involved in the execution of the IPO.
Prior to joining the Minto Group, he held accounting, financial planning and reporting roles at Telesat, Interactive Circuits & Systems Ltd. and EY.
“I am confident that Eddie is the right choice for the role given his relevant accounting and reporting experience, his intimate knowledge of the REIT, and his strong relationships with the Ottawa-based finance and accounting teams,” said Morin.
Fu’s appointment takes effect in November.
