Investment Objectives

The fundamental investment objective of the Pool is to seek to provide long-term total return by investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of global equity, fixed income and money market securities. The Pool may also achieve its objective by entering into forward contracts in order to approximate the return of another fund managed by Manulife Investment Management Limited (less derivative transaction costs).

Investment Strategy

Asset allocation decisions are based on the judgment and discretion of the portfolio advisor and portfolio sub-advisor. In considering asset allocation decisions, the portfolio advisor and portfolio sub-advisor will consider the overall market environment and the relative attractiveness of each asset class.
