Investment Objectives

To track the performance of a generally recognized U.S. equity market index. To provide long-term capital growth while minimizing the exposure to currency fluctuations between the U.S. and Canadian dollar. The fund invests primarily in equity securities in substantially the same proportion as its benchmark index, either directly or indirectly through investment in other mutual funds. The fund may also use derivatives to hedge against the fluctuations in the value of the U$ relative to the C$.

Investment Strategy

To achieve the fund’s objectives, the portfolio manager: manages the fund to track the performance of the S&P 500 Total Return Hedged 100% to CAD Index (or any successor thereto). The S&P 500 Total Return Hedged 100% to CAD Index is a market-capitalization weighted index representing the performance of 500 U.S. large-capitalization stocks.
