Investment Objectives

The fundamental investment objectives of the fund are to provide current income and stability of capital by investing primarily in a well-diversified portfolio of short-term fixed-income securities issued by Canadian governments and corporations, but excludes securities of issuers directly engaged in the extraction, processing and transportation of fossil fuels such as coal, oil and natural gas.

Investment Strategy

The fund’s investment process begins by excluding issuers identified in two exclusion lists that determine its investable universe. The first exclusion list is based on the Carbon Underground 200. Generally, any issuer included in the Carbon Underground 200 exclusion list is ineligible for the fund. RBC GAM has partnered with Sustainalytics to identify issuers for the second exclusion list.
