Investment Objectives

VPI Income Pool’s objective is to place a strong emphasis on avoiding material or long-term capital losses while investing in securities that provide a reasonable level of income and the potential for long-term capital growth. VPI Income Pool invests primarily in fixed income and equity securities that pay income.

Investment Strategy

In order to achieve its investment objective, the Portfolio Manager will use a flexible approach to investing in fixed income and equity securities with no geographic restrictions. The Pool will generally invest no less than 25% of its assets in fixed income securities and no less than 25% in equity securities. Allocations between asset classes will be based on economic conditions and/or the Portfolio Manager’s assessment of investment opportunities.
