Description

The fund seeks to provide quarterly cash distributions and capital appreciation by investing in an actively managed portfolio that focuses on six of the largest Canadian banks: Bank of Montreal, Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, National Bank of Canada, Royal Bank of Canada, The Bank of Nova Scotia, and The Toronto-Dominion Bank. Holdings are typically equally weighted, but due to an active approach, weightings may deviate significantly. To generate additional income and lower the overall volatility, the fund employs a covered call option strategy on approximately 25% of the portfolio. Rebalancing usually occurs quarterly, subject to fund advisers discretion. Prior to April 22, 2021, the fund was called CI First Asset CanBanc Income Class ETF.
