Investment Objectives

The fundamental investment objective of the Pool is to seek to provide long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in equity securities of U.S. companies of all sizes. The fundamental investment objective of the Fund cannot be changed without the approval of investors who own securities in the Fund.

Investment Strategy

The portfolio sub-advisor looks for companies across all market capitalizations that are highly differentiated with what appear to be sustainable competitive advantages with cash flow and returns on invested capital that are expected to consistently exceed their cost of capital. The portfolio sub-advisor favours companies with attractive and sustainable secular growth, high barriers to entry and strong management teams with a focus on shareholder value creation.
