The Fund's objective is to provide capital growth. It invests primarily in shares of Canadian companies that are expected to profit from future economic growth.
The portfolio manager uses a bottom-up growth investment style, focusing on companies that it believes may exhibit superior growth potential. When evaluating companies, it looks for four key characteristics: strong management, above-average growth, financial strength, attractive valuations. The Fund may also invest in foreign securities, which will vary from time to time. Foreign securities are not typically expected to exceed 49% of the net assets of the Fund at the time of purchase.
