Increased diversification
The Fund has the potential to invest up to 20% of its assets in securities in the U.S., which has more investment opportunities than Canada in several industries.

Currency hedging
50% of the Fund’s Canadian dollar denominated assets are currency hedged to reduce volatility due to foreign exchange fluctuations.

Pre-authorized contributions
You can set up a Pre-Authorized Contribution (PAC) to regularly invest in Funds. Investing regularly is one of the simplest ways to take advantage of market volatility and reduce the risks of market timing.
