Description

The fund seeks to maximize total return, consistent with capital preservation, by pursuing opportunities across the fixed income spectrum. As its name suggests, this actively managed fund has extreme flexibility to invest across different sectors, credit ratings, maturities, and geographic regions. It includes moving between sectors or across credit risks, and may have long, short, or negative duration. This significant latitude entails considerable active management on the portfolio duration, credit risk, and volatility, which could result to a higher portfolio turnover rate. The fund may also engage in hedging any foreign currency exposure of the portfolio back to CAD, though the sub-advisor may choose not to if such foreign currencies are likely to appreciate in value relative to the Canadian dollar.
