Investment Objectives

The objective of the Fund is to preserve capital and to generate returns through current income and capital appreciation, while being sufficiently diversified to mitigate volatility. The Fund will invest primarily in North American securities and may also invest in foreign securities.

Investment Strategy

The investment strategies of the Fund are as described below. To achieve the Fund’s investment objectives, the Manager will utilize fundamental research to identify attractive risk adjusted return opportunities in individual investments within a diversified portfolio. The Manager believes that private and public securities are priced inefficiently and, as a result, the price of any given security only occasionally coincides with its intrinsic value.
