The fund uses a multi-manager approach to invest broadly in equities from around the world, excluding Canada. The portfolio managers identify and select the strategies, sub-advisers, and weight assignments. They research, monitor, and manage sub-advisers from around the world while strategically allocating assets based on considerations that include manager and capital markets research. The pool of sub-advisers pursues various investment styles, such as value, growth or market-oriented investing. They may employ fundamental-driven, quantitative, or a combination of both approaches, to evaluate stocks that can use bottom-up, top-down, or macro-economic inputs to develop areas of focus. The portfolio managers manage the actively managed fund daily to constantly monitor risk and return expectations, making changes as appropriate. The adviser manages assets not allocated to any manager.
