Investment Objectives

To provide a high level of income and some capital growth, while preserving capital by investing primarily in bonds, debentures and other debt instruments of Canadian governments and corporations, having a credit quality of “A” or better. Any change in the Fund’s fundamental investment objective must be approved by a majority of the Securityholders of the Fund.

Investment Strategy

The Portfolio Adviser aims to add value through prudent security selection. Individual positions will be added when the expected return more than compensates for the risk and the nature of the Fund's holdings can be expected to change as different segments of the credit market become more or less attractive. The Fund's portfolio positions will, under normal circumstances, be invested primarily in fixed income securities of Canadian governmental and corporate issuers.
