The fund primarily invests in bonds trading below the weighted average price of the Canadian short-term bond universe, with a preference for discount bonds.The fund may hold USD-denominated loans and may invest in short-term, Canadian- or US-listed debt issued by the US government and foreign corporations. To select securities, the fund adviser uses a rules-based, proprietary process that considers key factors such as term to maturity, credit quality, yield to maturity, duration, and issuer diversification. The fund adviser also considers environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors in the selection process.
