Investment Objectives

This Portfolio is a strategic asset allocation fund. Its objective is to provide long-term capital appreciation and, to a lesser extent, generate an income return. Consequently, the Portfolio invests mainly in the units of mutual funds which themselves invest in equity and fixed-income securities throughout the world.

Investment Strategy

The portfolio manager will actively choose the underlying funds, including those managed by the Manager. It will determine the percentage of the Portfolio’s assets that will be invested in each underlying fund, while ensuring compliance with the Portfolio’s investment objective, based on several criteria, including the following: – Duration and maturity; – Credit quality; – Management style diversification; – Geographical and sectoral diversification; – Market capitalization diversification.
