Investment Objectives
The Fund aims to achieve long term capital growth. It invests primarily in a mix of equity securities, fixed income securities and money market instruments of U.S. issuers and other issuers from around the world. The Fund can invest in these securities either directly or indirectly through investments in underlying funds.
Investment Strategy
To meet the Fund’s objectives, the portfolio management team: Follows a neutral mix guideline of approximately 65% equity securities, and 35% fixed income securities and money market instruments. Depending on market conditions, may vary the asset mix from the neutral mix if it believes this produces the best overall return. Generally keeps the Fund’s asset mix within the following ranges: 55%-75% equity securities, and 25%- 45% fixed income securities and money market instruments.
