Investment Objectives
The fund seeks to provide unitholders with positive absolute returns that are not correlated to the broader securities markets. The fund will utilize a multi-strategy approach by allocating its assets across various asset classes including equities, currencies and commodities. The aggregate gross exposure of the fund shall not exceed the limits on the use of leverage or as otherwise permitted under applicable securities legislation.
Investment Strategy
The fund seeks to achieve its investment objectives by investing in long and short positions across multiple asset classes, which may include, but are not limited to, equity securities, fixed income securities, commodities and currencies. Positions are chosen by the investment advisor based on an analysis of technical trends and fundamental outperformance factors that are tailored to each asset class.
