Investment Objectives

> To provide total returns comprised of interest income and modest capital appreciation. The fund invests primarily in investment grade corporate debt securities from anywhere around the world. It may also invest in high yield debt securities and emerging market sovereign and corporate bonds globally. We will not change the fundamental investment objectives of the fund unless we have the consent of a majority of the voting unitholders of the fund to do so.

Investment Strategy

To achieve the fund’s objectives, the portfolio manager: invests primarily in investment grade debt securities rated BBB(-) and above by Standard & Poor’s (or equivalent rating agency) of companies domiciled or carrying out their business activities anywhere in the world; conducts detailed company credit and industry analysis to identify investment opportunities offering higher probabilities of superior rates of return while simultaneously minimizing the prospect of default.
