The primary objective of the Fund is the achievement of long-term growth of capital, primarily through the investment in a concentrated portfolio of common shares or other equity-related investments issued by Canadian companies.
We primarily use a fundamental, bottom up approach to security analysis. We identify companies that we believe have the potential for significant long-term capital growth based on specific quality drivers, and invest in the securities of those which can be obtained at a reasonable price. In conducting our analysis, we evaluate the financial condition and management of the company, its industry and relevant economic factors.
