Investment Objectives

The Fund aims to achieve a high level of current income while protecting capital. It invests primarily in Canadian fixed income securities.

Investment Strategy

To meet the Fund’s objectives, the portfolio management team: Uses the FTSE Canada Short Term Bond Index as a guide to structuring the Fund’s portfolio and selecting investments, and manages the Fund to have an overall interest rate risk similar to that of the index. Allocates the Fund’s assets among issuers in different market sectors, industries, and maturities, based on its view of the relative value of each sector, industry, or maturity.
