Investment Objectives

The investment objective of the Mawer Tax Effective Balanced Fund is to invest for above-average long-term, tax-effective rates of return. We intend to achieve this objective by investing up to all of the assets of the Fund in other Funds as well as by investing directly in equity and equity-related securities and, when appropriate, treasury bills, short-term notes, debentures and bonds.

Investment Strategy

We have defined commitment ranges for various asset classes as follows: Cash 0 – 15%, Bonds 25 – 50%, Equities 45 – 70%. We will analyze the economy and markets with a view to determine which asset classes are more likely to offer attractive risk/return characteristics within a medium to long-term time frame.
