Investment Objectives

This fund’s objective is to preserve the value of your investment and, to a lesser extent, provide some potential for growth by investing primarily in exchange traded funds that invest in Canadian, U.S. and international fixed income and equity securities. The fund may also invest in other mutual funds or invest directly in individual fixed income and equity securities and cash or cash equivalents.

Investment Strategy

These are the strategies the portfolio manager uses to try and achieve the fund’s objective: employs a strategic asset allocation strategy; the fund’s asset class weightings will be approximately 60% in fixed income securities and 40% in equity securities; may invest up to 100% of the fund’s assets in securities of underlying funds, with such underlying funds expected to be predominantly or exclusively underlying funds that are managed by us or one of our affiliates or associates.
