Investment Objectives

The Fund aims to provide a high level of current income and the potential for moderate capital appreciation by investing primarily in U.S. high yielding investments.

Investment Strategy

The Fund invests primarily in U.S. high yield securities (including, but not limited to, non-investment grade bonds, debentures, convertible securities, asset-backed securities, and notes). The Fund seeks to diversify by industry and company and may also invest in securities of issuers outside the United States. The Fund intends to limit foreign currency risk by hedging foreign currency exposure back to Canadian dollars.
