The sub-advisor seeks to meet the Fund’s objective by investing in a diversified portfolio of mainly Canadian equity securities that are undervalued in relation to the business value of the issuer and exhibit the potential for long-term capital appreciation. Investments for the portfolio are selected using “bottom-up” analysis on a stock-by-stock basis. The focus is on the strengths of individual companies, rather than sector or country trends.
