Investment Objectives

The Fund seeks to provide capital appreciation by investing primarily in securities of other investment funds to gain exposure to global equities and fixed income securities.

Investment Strategy

In managing the equity component of the Fund, the portfolio advisor invests in equity through investments in the following Underlying Funds: Manulife Climate Action Fund, Manulife U.S. Opportunities Fund, Manulife Global Equity Class, and Manulife Canadian Equity Class. The portfolio sub-advisor of the Fund may also employ a derivatives strategy designed to mitigate portfolio losses by hedging market exposure which should lower the risk of the portfolio.
