Investment Objectives

The investment objective of the Fund is to maximize current income consistent with preservation of capital and prudent investment management. It invests primarily in non-Canadian dollar high quality corporate bonds diversified broadly across industries, issuers, and regions. Any change to the fundamental investment objectives must be approved by a majority of votes cast at a meeting of unitholders called for that purpose.

Investment Strategy

The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing the majority of its assets in a diversified portfolio of investment grade corporate fixed income securities of varying maturities. The average portfolio duration of this Fund normally varies within two years (plus or minus) of the portfolio duration of the securities comprising the Barclays U.S. Credit Index. Duration is a measure used to determine the sensitivity of a security’s price to changes in interest rates.
