The Fund aims to increase the value of your investment over the long-term by investing mostly in common shares of small capitalization or “small cap” Canadian companies listed on a stock exchange. The Fund follows a responsible approach to investing, as described on pages 74 to 79 of this prospectus. Unitholder approval (by a majority of votes cast at a meeting of unitholders) is required prior to a fundamental change of investment objectives.
The Portfolio Manager invests mostly in small cap companies having a market capitalization at the time of investment between $100 million and $2.5 billion. The Portfolio Manager uses a fundamental research approach, employing a bottom-up stock selection process that includes company visits and management interviews.
