Investment Objectives

The investment objective of CI Canadian Dividend Fund is to provide primarily a predictable stream of income and, secondarily, modest long-term capital appreciation, by investing in an actively managed portfolio of primarily Canadian stocks.

Investment Strategy

Typically, the portfolio advisor attempts to produce superior dividend income and modest long-term capital appreciation by investing in mature companies with predictable and growing levels of profitability. The portfolio advisor favours Canadian companies that show financial strength, balanced by a desire for the fund’s portfolio to show above-average growth rates. The portfolio advisor’s approach uses both quantitative and qualitative tools to build an income-oriented portfolio.
