Investment Objectives

The FÉRIQUE World Dividend Equity Fund seeks to provide income and long-term capital growth. The Fund mainly invests in dividend-paying stocks and other classes and categories of securities of companies throughout the world.

Investment Strategy

The Fund is managed by the portfolio sub-manager Wellington Management Canada ULC (Wellington). The portfolio sub-manager resorts to an investment strategy that uses an approach that seeks to provide long-term total returns, by investing in high-quality, undervalued companies in out-of-favor industries, and without taking greater-than-average risk. It focuses on the significance of dividends, positive capital stewardship, and franchise value.
