Investment Objectives

The fund seeks to provide long-term capital appreciation with lower volatility and correlation to the overall equity markets by investing in ETFs that are listed on North American exchanges and that represent North American equities, bonds and cash, using a tactical approach. The fund’s tactical investment approach can allocate the portfolio to equities, bonds and cash to achieve its objectives.

Investment Strategy

The portfolio manager will employ a proprietary, quantitatively driven investment process which drives its asset allocation decisions. The fund’s quantitative approach provides signals to the portfolio management team to increase equity exposure in up-markets and increase bond exposure in down-markets, in an effort to generate returns and also to avoid significant market declines.
