Investment Objectives

The NBI Balanced Portfolio’s investment objective is to ensure current income and long-term capital appreciation. To do this, it invests primarily in a diverse mix of mutual funds (that may include exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”)) that are fixed-income funds and equity funds.

Investment Strategy

The target weighting for each asset class in which the fund invests under normal market conditions is the following: 52.50% - 67.50% of its net assets in Canadian and global equity securities; 32.50% - 47.50% of its net asset in Canadian and global fixed-income securities. Up to 100% of the fund’s investments in equity securities and fixed-income securities can be in foreign securities.
