Why invest in this Fund?

Investment Objective

The objective of the Fund is to generate returns from investments in a concentrated portfolio of well-managed businesses, with strong competitive positions, which are overlooked by the market and have the potential for significant capital appreciation. These businesses may be in Canada, the United States or in other foreign jurisdictions with a primary emphasis on companies with a small market capitalization.

Portfolio Fit

Suitable for investors looking for long-term capital appreciation from a concentrated portfolio of undervalued small-cap companies, including special situations with identifiable catalysts.
