Investment Objectives

This fund’s objective is to provide a level of income consistent with investments in short-term fixed income securities. The fund invests primarily in short-term, high-quality, fixed income securities issued by or guaranteed by Canadian federal, provincial or municipal governments or issued by corporations.

Investment Strategy

These are the strategies the portfolio manager uses to try to achieve the fund’s objective: examines economic indicators like growth, inflation and monetary policy to provide a framework for selecting appropriate securities; analyzes credit ratings of various issuers to determine the best potential investments for the portfolio; allocates investments among government and corporate securities to diversify the fund’s holdings.
