Encana Needed to Tap Into Passive Investing, CEO Suttles Says

Encana plans to re-domicile to the US and rebrand as Affinitive to tap into larger capital pools and passive investing trends. The CEO, Doug Suttles, explains that this move is not a reflection on Canada but a strategic decision to access larger investment pools. The company remains committed to its operations in Canada and the US, with no immediate plans for M&A. The rebranding reflects a shift towards a modern, progressive identity that aligns with current energy and climate discussions.
