The Fund’s objectives are to provide long-term capital growth, having due regard to the preservation of capital, with income production as a secondary consideration. The Fund invests in a diversified portfolio of Canadian equity securities of small, mid and large cap companies. The Fund may invest up to 30% of its portfolio in non-Canadian securities.
The Fund employs an active multiple sub-adviser approach to leverage the individual strengths of each sub-adviser. Fund assets are allocated to a combination of the sub-advisers for the Fund, based on the Portfolio Manager’s assessment of the sub-advisers’ skills, the expected capital market environment, and the anticipated risk inherent in each sub-adviser’s strategy.
