Investment Objectives

The Fund's investment objective is to provide a less volatile and more stable growth of assets by investing in a balanced asset mix of short-term fixed income securities, common and preferred shares, index participation units such as Standard & Poor's Depositary Receipts, and bonds. The Fund invests primarily in securities of Canadian governments and corporations. The asset mix is varied depending on the outlook for the economy and financial markets.

Investment Strategy

When selecting companies to invest in to achieve the Fund's investment objective, the Portfolio Adviser uses a disciplined investment process to maintain the most suitable asset mix to achieve a balance of the portfolio securities given the Portfolio Adviser's investment outlook.
