The primary objective of the Fund is to provide a conservative balanced portfolio that emphasizes income generation, with some level of growth of capital, through diversified investments in Canadian and foreign equity or equity-related securities and in fixed-income securities, either long-term or short-term.
The Fund invests in securities of other investment funds managed by us, and may also invest in other securities, including ETFs, to achieve its objectives. We use strategic and tactical asset allocation to create a portfolio diversified by investment style, asset class and geographic region, with an emphasis on income generation. The portfolio generally includes exposure to Canadian equities, global equities, investment grade fixed-income securities and high yield bonds.
