Investment Objectives

The Fund’s objective is to achieve long term capital growth of returns consisting of income and some capital gains primarily through investments in U.S. debt and money market securities either denominated in U.S. dollars or hedged to U.S. dollars using forward currency contracts. 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’s portfolio will, under normal circumstances, be invested primarily in fixed income securities, including those of foreign issuers. It also may invest in debt securities convertible into common stock, and fixed income securities of governments, government agencies, supranational agencies, companies, trusts and limited partnerships. The Fund may invest in securities of other mutual funds (including ETFs). The Fund will not be leveraged.
