Investment Objectives

The objective of this Fund is to provide a long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in equity and equity-related securities of companies located anywhere in the world, including emerging markets, and that promote diversity both in their governance and in their employment policies.

Investment Strategy

The sub-manager selects shares of companies that promote diversity both in their governance (board of directors, executive committee) and in their employment policies. These companies are recognized by, but not limited to, their policies that promote the emergence of new leaders or employment equity. The sub-manager favours companies with more than 30% of women on their board of directors and more than 15% on their executive committee.
