Investment Objectives

The fund’s objective is to provide long-term capital growth. It invests primarily in a diversified mix of mutual funds managed by us and/or other mutual fund managers that invest in companies located outside of the U.S and Canada, and/or directly in equity securities of companies that are located outside of the U.S. and Canada.

Investment Strategy

The Fund invests primarily in underlying funds that invest in equity securities of companies located outside of the U.S. and Canada and may also invest in equity securities of companies located outside of the U.S. and Canada. Where the Fund invests in underlying funds, the weightings of those underlying funds may be rebalanced periodically, at the discretion of Manager, so as to allow the Manager to use an investment approach that manages risk and increases potential return to the Fund.
