Investment Objectives

This fund’s objective is to provide income along with the opportunity for growth by investing primarily in Canadian dollar denominated debt instruments using a responsible investment approach.

Investment Strategy

These are the strategies the portfolio manager uses to try to achieve the fund’s objective: invests primarily in Canadian dollar denominated investment grade fixed income instruments such as debt securities issued or guaranteed by Canadian federal and provincial governments or issued by Canadian corporations; may also invest in non-investment grade debt instruments, loans and any other debt obligations the portfolio manager believes will enhance the fund’s total return.
