Investment Objectives

Dynamic Global Discovery Fund seeks to provide long-term capital growth through investment in a broadly diversified portfolio consisting primarily of equity securities of businesses based outside of Canada. Before a fundamental change is made to the investment objective of the Fund, the prior approval of unitholders is required. This approval must be given by a resolution passed by a majority of the votes cast at a meeting of unitholders

Investment Strategy

The Fund may invest the majority of its assets in equity securities of small capitalization companies. The Fund may invest in all types of securities. The Fund will invest primarily in equity securities, including common shares and preferred shares and, to a lesser extent, in other kinds of securities, including: convertible bonds, payment-in-kind bonds, warrants, discounted debt instruments, restructured debt securities, loan assignments, loan participations and high yield, lower rated debt
