Investment Objectives

The Fund’s objective is to provide a stable level of cash flow by investing principally in fixed income securities of Canadian issuers. The investment objective cannot be changed unless unitholders of the Fund approve the change at a meeting.

Investment Strategy

Investment styles this Fund may use include interest rate management, currency management sector selection, security selection and global management. The Fund may invest up to 30% of its net assets in foreign fixed income securities. In order to seek to reduce currency risk, the Fund expects to hedge most of the foreign currency risk inherent in foreign currency securities through the use of forward contracts.
