Investment Objectives
The objective of this Fund is to provide a high income return and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of securities of Canadian issuers, including the common and preferred shares of corporations that pay dividends, as well as the units of income trusts and real estate investment trusts.
Investment Strategy
The portfolio manager focuses on selecting Canadian securities that pay sustainable dividends while maximizing risk-adjusted returns. The approach is based on bottom-up fundamental analysis and discounted cash flow models for securities valuation, which includes environmental, social and governance (ESG) analysis.
