Investment Objectives

Dynamic Credit Spectrum Fund seeks to achieve a high level of interest income and the potential for some long-term capital growth by investing primarily in an actively managed and diversified portfolio of corporate credit securities. Before a fundamental change is made to the investment objectives of the Fund, the prior approval of unitholders is required. This approval must be given by a resolution passed by a majority of the votes cast at a meeting of unitholders

Investment Strategy

In order to achieve its objectives, the Fund may invest in the following types of investments including but not limited to: North American bonds typically rated BB high, Ba1 or BB+ or lower by a nationally recognized credit rating agency, unrated securities, investment grade corporate bonds, asset backed securities, including mortgage backed securities, convertible securities, preferred shares, ETFs and closed-end funds, government bonds, leveraged loans, and cash equivalents.
