Investment Objectives

The investment objective of the Arrow EC Income Advantage Alternative Fund is to generate income and preserve capital by investing in a diversified portfolio of primarily North American investment grade corporate bonds. The fund will use leverage. The leverage will be created through the use of cash borrowings, short sales and derivative contracts. The fund’s leverage shall not exceed the limits on the use of leverage or as otherwise permitted under applicable securities legislation.

Investment Strategy

To achieve the investment objectives, the Fund will invest primarily in investment grade debt securities of North American corporate and government issuers that are rated BBB- or higher by a recognized rating agency. The Fund may also include non-investment grade debt securities and may invest in other asset classes if warranted by financial conditions.
