The Fund’s investment objective is to provide long-term capital appreciation principally through exposure to equity securities of issuers with a smaller market capitalization. The investment objective cannot be changed unless unitholders of the Fund approve the change at a meeting.
The Fund invests primarily in shares of foreign companies, using the following styles: market-oriented, value, growth, quality and small capitalization. The Fund may use derivatives to hedge against changes in the value of the Fund’s investments caused by changes to the exchange rates between the Canadian dollar and other currencies. The Fund may use various derivatives contracts for non-hedging purposes in order to obtain investment exposure on its cash position.
