Investment Objectives

The Fund’s objective is to provide above average, long-term total returns consisting principally of interest income by investing primarily in high-quality Canadian dollar denominated fixed income securities of Canadian and foreign issuers. The investment objective of the Fund can only be changed with the approval of a majority of the Unitholders at a meeting called for such purpose.

Investment Strategy

The Fund seeks to achieve above average returns through a diversified portfolio composed primarily of Canadian dollar denominated Government and corporate debt and money market securities. The Fund is seeking to deliver long-term returns that are better than the average of other similar funds offered by other managers over the same time period.
