Investment Objectives
The Fund’s objective is to provide a high level of interest income. It invests primarily in bonds and treasury bills that are denominated in U.S. dollars and are issued by governments, corporations or supranational entities around the world.
Investment Strategy
Securities will generally have at the time of purchase a minimum credit rating of BBB (low) or R2 (low) or better by Dominion Bond Rating Service Limited, or an equivalent rating by another designated rating organization. The average term to maturity of the Fund’s investments will vary depending on market conditions. The portfolio adviser adjusts the average term to maturity to try to maximize returns while minimizing interest rate risk.
