Investment Objectives

XFR seeks to provide income while limiting interest rate risk by replicating, to the extent possible, the performance of the FTSE Canada Floating Rate Note Index, net of expenses. Under normal market conditions, XFR will primarily invest in Canadian fixed income securities.

Investment Strategy

XFR's current principal investment strategy is to employ a Sampling Strategy. In addition to or as an alternative to this strategy, XFR may also invest by employing a Replicating Strategy, by investing in one or more iShares ETFs and/or through the use of derivatives. Certain derivatives, such as interest rate swaps, may be used by XFR to convert a fixed-rate income stream to a floating-rate income stream.
