Investment Objectives

The fundamental investment objective of the Fund is to achieve steady income and to ensure invested capital preservation. The Fund invests primarily (either directly or indirectly through investments which provide exposure to such securities) in debt instruments of Canadian and foreign issuers (including debt instruments issued by various levels of government, including municipal governments, and by public and quasi-public entities).

Investment Strategy

The portfolio adviser’s macro view of the market is derived from study of the economy and the monetary policy outlook of the central banks of the key industrialized nations. The portfolio adviser uses a global top-down active short-term management approach, including to set the duration of the portfolio.
