Investment Objectives

To provide long-term capital growth. The fund invests primarily in equity securities of Canadian companies using a quantitative investment approach, but excludes securities of issuers directly engaged in the extraction, processing and transportation of fossil fuels such as coal, oil and natural gas. The fund seeks to achieve a reduced level of volatility of returns as compared to the broader Canadian equity market.

Investment Strategy

The fund’s investment process begins by excluding issuers identified in two exclusion lists that determine its investable universe. The first exclusion list is based on the Carbon Underground 200. Generally, any issuer included in the Carbon Underground 200 exclusion list is ineligible for the fund. RBC GAM has partnered with Sustainalytics to identify issuers for the second exclusion list.
