Investment Objectives

This fund’s objective is to achieve an attractive total return, consisting of income and capital gains. It invests primarily in a mix of Canadian equity and equity-related securities and fixed income securities. The fund is not limited to how much it invests or keeps invested in each asset class. The mix may vary according to market conditions. Any change to the fundamental investment objective must be approved by a majority of votes cast at a meeting of unitholders held for that reason.

Investment Strategy

The portfolio advisor identifies companies that offer good value and the potential for growth in their industry and then considers the impact of economic trends. Equity investments are diversified across industry sectors and emphasize companies that pay consistent dividends or income. The portfolio advisor may use techniques such as fundamental analysis to assess growth and value potential.
