Investment Objectives

The Fund's investment objective is to seek above-average, long-term growth of capital by investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of equity securities of small- to medium-sized Canadian issuers. We will not change the Fund’s fundamental investment objectives without the consent of unitholders by a majority of votes cast at a meeting of unitholders.

Investment Strategy

To achieve its investment objectives, the Fund: invests in equity securities of small- to medium-sized Canadian and foreign issuers. The Fund aims to add value through prudent security selection, based on fundamental, bottom-up analysis; in addition to equity securities (primarily common shares), may also buy securities that are convertible into common shares; may invest a portion of its assets in illiquid investments, including, but not limited to, restricted securities.
