Investment Objectives

The objectives of this Fund are to achieve above-average long-term, risk-adjusted returns and to provide diversification of risk by investing primarily in entities outside of Canada and the United States. The Fund will be invested primarily in equities and equity-related securities. The amount invested in any one country will vary depending upon the economic, investment, and market outlook and opportunities in each area.

Investment Strategy

We believe that non-North American equities (i.e. equity securities of non-Canadian and non-U.S. issuers) can provide an opportunity to invest in many of the world’s top companies that may be trading at significant discounts to their North American counterparts, and whose value has not yet been fully recognized by investors.
