Investment Objectives

The Fund seeks to generate a high level of current income, primarily through investment in high-yield corporate bonds from issuers around the world and, where consistent with this objective, the Fund will also seek capital appreciation. We will not change the Fund’s fundamental investment objectives without the consent of unitholders by a majority of votes cast at a meeting of unitholders.

Investment Strategy

To achieve its investment objectives, the Fund: invests primarily in high yield corporate bonds from around the world, but may also invest in other investments such as preferred shares, common shares, or income trusts; may invest in units of exchange-traded funds; may invest in Canadian corporate bonds denominated in foreign currencies; may use derivatives such as options, futures, forward contracts, swaps, and other similar instruments.
