Investment Objectives

The Fund seeks to maximize income while preserving capital and maintaining liquidity by investing primarily in Canadian money market instruments such as treasury bills and short-term government and corporate debt. Any proposed change to the fundamental investment objectives of the Fund must be approved by a majority of the votes cast at a meeting of the Fund’s investors called for that purpose.

Investment Strategy

The Fund maintains a balance between the need for liquidity and income by managing a schedule of regularly maturing short-term money market investments. The Fund does not use derivatives. Generally, the Fund will not invest more than 30% of its assets in foreign securities. The Fund seeks to maintain a constant NAV per security of $10.
