Investment Objectives

The objective is to provide growth and moderate risk through investments in Canadian equities, Canadian bonds, foreign equities and cash.

Investment Strategy

The manager uses a top-down growth, macroeconomic investment approach that is focused on risk management for asset and sector allocation. Individual stock selection is bottom-up, based on company fundamentals. In the equity component of the fund, the focus is on mid to large capitalization equities. The fund portfolio attempts to achieve balance - in asset, sector and stock allocation.
