Investment Objectives

Dynamic Power Balanced Fund seeks to maximize long-term capital appreciation in a manner that outperforms the Fund’s benchmark primarily by investing in both equity and fixed income securities with the goal of achieving a 50/50 balance. Before a fundamental change is made to the investment objective of the Fund, the prior approval of unitholders is required. This approval must be given by a resolution passed by a majority of the votes cast at a meeting of unitholders

Investment Strategy

As a Dynamic “Power” Fund, this Fund invests primarily in an actively-traded portfolio of both Canadian equity and fixed income securities. The proportion of fixed income and equity securities may vary from time to time between 30% and 70% of the Fund’s portfolio value. The equity component of the Fund may invest in Canadian companies in any sector, chosen according to a growth investment approach.
