The objective is to provide unitholders with a high and regular income return, as well as a greater security of capital. Consequently, the Fund invests in various debt securities such as bonds of Canadian or foreign corporations, and bonds issued or guaranteed by various levels of Canadian or foreign governments. The Fund’s portfolio may also include a small portion of shares.
The investment strategy is to achieve a stable return better than that of the FTSE Canada Universe Bond Index benchmark index. The first step in reaching this objective is to conduct a fundamental analysis of the economy and market anticipations. This will allow a portfolio strategy to be established in terms of duration, positioning on the interest-rate curve and sector allocation.
