Description

The fund uses a covered call strategy while providing exposure to utility services companies from Canada and the United States. The advisor selects stocks based on market-cap with consideration to liquidity, sub-sectors within the portfolio, and dividend yield. The actively managed fund also considers companies from subsectors such as utilities, pipelines, telecommunications and industrials. The covered call option writing strategy allows the fund to mitigate downside risk and generate income. It generally writes at or slightly out-of-the-money call options with a term of one to two months on up to 100% of the portfolios value. The advisor reviews holdings on an ongoing basis with full discretion to add, remove, or substitute securities.
