Investment Objectives

The investment objective of the Global Macro Pool is to generate income and achieve long-term capital appreciation by primarily investing in ETFs using the Disciplined Leadership Approach. This approach allows the Global Macro Pool to tactically shift security, sector, and asset class exposures as market conditions warrant.

Investment Strategy

The Global Macro Pool will not seek to construct a portfolio relative to a particular index or static asset alloaction. The strategy aims to achieve positive risk-adjusted returns through Barometer's careful assessment of potential securities for the portfolio and the selection of mainly lower-risk securities which have a history of low volatility and generating positive returns.
