Investment Objectives

To achieve long-term capital growth and regular dividend income while minimizing the exposure to currency fluctuations between the U.S. and Canadian dollars. The fund invests primarily in common and preferred shares of U.S. companies with above average dividend yields either directly or indirectly through investment in other mutual funds managed by RBC GAM or an affiliate of RBC GAM. The fund will also use derivatives to hedge against the fluctuations in the value of the U$ relative to the C$.

Investment Strategy

Currently, the fund invests directly in common and preferred shares of U.S. companies with above average dividend yields. The fund’s investment process is primarily based on fundamental research, although the portfolio manager will also consider quantitative and technical factors. Stock selection decisions are ultimately based on an understanding of the company, its business and its outlook.
