Investment Objectives
The investment objective of the Fund is to generate a consistent level of current income and capital growth by investing in Canadian and US corporate and high yield bonds.
Investment Strategy
The investment grade corporate bond component of the Fund will be managed based on a combination of top-down macroeconomic research and bottom-up fundamental credit analysis. This approach has a greater emphasis on sector, credit and security selection. In depth credit analysis is complemented with the extensive use of external management interviews in the selection of holdings in the portfolio.
