Strategy Overview

Investment Strategy

Our SMID-cap growth strategy is designed to deliver significant capital appreciation over time while also providing stability during market downturns. We seek to achieve this through a proprietary investment process that combines bottom-up stock selection with top-down thematic investing, and a judicious mix of “stable growth” and “emerging growth” companies in the portfolio.

  • Stable team with over 25 years of industry experience on average
  • High active share in the 85-95 range
  • Demonstrated investment methodology, and a rigorous process designed to deliver strong capital appreciation over time and stability in down‑markets

Disclaimer

Please read the simplified prospectus before investing. The amount of risk associated with any particular investment depends largely on your own personal circumstances including your time horizon, liquidity needs, portfolio size, income, investment knowledge and attitude toward price fluctuations. Investors should consult their financial advisor before making a decision as to whether this fund is a suitable investment for them.

Commissions, trailing commissions, management fees and expenses all may be associated with mutual fund investments. Mutual funds are not guaranteed, their values change frequently and past performance may not be repeated.

The rate of return or mathematical table shown is used only to illustrate the effects of the compound growth rate and is not intended to reflect future values of the mutual fund or returns on investment in the mutual fund. The indicated rates of return are the historical annual compounded total returns including changes in unit value and reinvestment of all distributions and do not take into account sales, redemption, distribution or optional charges or income taxes payable by any unitholder that would have reduced returns.
