Investment Objectives

Accelerate Enhanced Canadian Benchmark Alternative Fund seeks to achieve long-term capital appreciation and a superior risk-adjusted return relative to the broader Canadian equity market. ATSX seeks to outperform the Canadian equity market over the long term by investing primarily in Canadian and foreign issuers listed on an exchange or marketplace in Canada that represent the broad Canadian listed equity market, and using a long-short overlay portfolio to seek to add positive absolute return.

Investment Strategy

In order to achieve its investment objective, ATSX invests directly or indirectly primarily in the equity securities of Canadian and foreign issuers listed on an exchange or marketplace in Canada that represent the broad Canadian listed equities market. In addition, ATSX invests in a long-short equity overlay portfolio by investing in up to a 50% short portfolio overlay and using the cash generated from these short positions to purchase an additional approximately 50% long portfolio overlay.
