Investment Objectives

> To provide regular monthly income with the potential for modest capital growth. The fund invests primarily in a well-diversified portfolio of short-term fixed-income securities issued in the U.S. market by U.S. and foreign corporations either directly or indirectly through investment in other mutual funds managed by RBC GAM or an affiliate of RBC GAM. We will not change

Investment Strategy

It is currently expected that the fund will invest up to 100% of its assets in units of the RBC Short Term U.S. Corporate Bond ETF (the underlying fund), which is sub-advised by RBC Global Asset Management (U.S.) Inc.
