The tower, standing at 165 metres tall, claims to be the tallest inclined structure in the world.
It was originally designed to be used as a training facility for the 1976 Olympics – but was only built 10 years after the fact.
About $60 million worth of renovations are needed before Desjardins can move in; the Quebec government is expected to lend $43.5 million.
The company will occupy seven of the 12 floors.
