About AGF TOTAL RETURN BOND FUND

The fund seeks to maximize total return by operating with a 'go-anywhere' mandate, enabling it to capitalize on attractive fixed-income opportunities globally. The goal is to provide interest income and capital appreciation through a diversified portfolio of debt securities issued by governments and other entities worldwide. Employing a dual-pronged strategy, the portfolio manager selects individual bonds through bottom-up analysis, relying on proprietary credit research to identify promising investments. Simultaneously, the fund employs a top-down approach to allocate resources across countries and categories, as well as to manage duration effectively. Investments may include sub-investment grade securities. By offering exposure to a variety of fixed-income securities, including high-yield, convertible, and emerging market bonds, the fund seeks to provide investors with the potential for higher yields compared to traditional bonds while spreading risk across different sectors and geographies.
