Investment Objectives
The Fund's investment objective is to seek capital appreciation by investing primarily in Canadian equity securities directly or indirectly through mutual funds and exchange-traded funds that invest in such securities.
Investment Strategy
In pursuing the Fund’s investment objective, the sub-advisor: typically invests between 55% and 80% of the Fund’s assets in securities that have exposure to Canadian equities; typically invests between 20% and 45% of the Fund’s assets in securities that have exposure to foreign equities; uses a strategic asset allocation strategy to determine the balance between the portion of the Fund’s portfolio exposed to Canadian equities and the portion exposed to foreign equities.
