The fund aims to achieve a high level of total investment return, consisting of dividend income and capital gains. It invests primarily in equity securities of U.S. companies that pay, or may be expected to pay, dividends.
The portfolio advisor identifies companies with a consistent history of paying and/or growing dividends that offer good value and the potential for growth in their industry. The portfolio advisor uses techniques such as fundamental analysis to assess growth potential and valuation. This means evaluating the financial condition, competitiveness, and management of each company, its industry and the overall economy.
