Investment Objectives

The Fund seeks to provide long-term growth and capital gains to provide diversification of risk by investing primarily in equities of companies located outside of Canada and the United States. The fundamental investment objective of the Fund cannot be changed without the approval of investors who own securities in the Fund.

Investment Strategy

The Fund invests primarily in equities, excluding Canadian and U.S. companies. The amount invested in any one country depends on security selection, which is a bottom-up process, and on prudent diversification at an industry and economic level. This also involves consideration of economic, investment and market outlooks.
