Investment Objectives

The Fund’s objective is to provide long-term total returns consisting of both income and capital gains by investing primarily in a portfolio of fixed income securities and equities. The investment objective of the Fund can only be changed with the approval of a majority of the Unitholders at a meeting called for such purpose.

Investment Strategy

The Fund seeks to provide capital growth while moderating the volatility of equities by investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of both equities and bonds. The Fund employs an equity bias, recognizing that ownership offers the greatest investment reward. The portfolio manager’s equity investment style is a bottom-up, fundamental approach which seeks to identify ‘best of class’ companies.
