Investment Objectives

The objective of this Fund is to provide an income return and some long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in fixed-income securities of issuers throughout the world.

Investment Strategy

The management of the Fund’s assets is entrusted to a sub-manager who combines global macro views with bottom-up fundamental research. The sub-manager will be investing primarily in fixed-income securities of government and corporate issuers throughout the world. The majority of these issuers are from developed countries. The fixed-income securities include primarily, but are not limited to, sovereign bonds, investment-grade corporate bonds, mortgage-related and asset-backed securities.
