Investment Objectives

The investment objective of the ETF is to generate income that is consistent with prevailing Canadian short-term corporate bond yields while reducing the potential effects of Canadian interest rate fluctuations on the ETF. The ETF invests primarily in a portfolio of Canadian debt (including debt-like securities) directly and hedges the portfolio’s interest rate risk by maintaining a portfolio duration that is not more than one year.

Investment Strategy

The Sub-Advisor may, from time to time, invest in Canadian and foreign government debt, municipal bonds, Listed Funds, cash and cash equivalents which generally in the aggregate will not exceed 40% of the ETF’s net assets. No less than 95%, by value, of the debt (including debt-like securities) held by HFR must be rated at or above investment grade (BBB- by S&P, BBB low by DBRS or Baa3 by Moody’s).
