Investment Objectives

The investment objective of fund is to provide stability of capital and income with the potential for capital appreciation. The fund aims to achieve its objective by investing primarily in a portfolio of fixed-income securities issued by Canadian and foreign governments and corporations. Any change to the fundamental investment objective must be approved by a majority of votes cast at a meeting of unitholders held for that reason.

Investment Strategy

The fund primarily invests in fixed-income securities such as bonds, debentures, preferred shares and notes issued by Canadian federal, provincial and municipal governments and corporations, and asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities, bank loans and floating rate debt instruments, creating a portfolio with an average duration of no less than 3.5 years and no greater than 9 years. In selecting such securities, the portfolio advisor emphasizes bonds of high credit quality.
