For definitions of technical terms in this piece, please visit iaclarington.com/glossary and speak with your financial advisor. Quartile rankings are based on fund returns for periods ending March 31, 2025 and are subject to change monthly. The peer group is divided into four equal quartiles and shows how a fund has performed compared to the funds in the group. The top 25% of funds are 1st quartile, the next 25% of funds are 2nd, the next group are 3rd and the 25% with the poorest performance are 4th. Peer groups are defined to compare similar mutual funds. Indicated mutual fund rates of return include changes in share or unit value and reinvestment of all dividends or distributions and do not take into account sales, redemption, distribution or optional charges or income taxes payable by any securityholder that would have reduced returns. Returns are historical annual compounded total returns. A mutual fund’s “yield” refers to income generated by securities held in the fund’s portfolio and does not represent the return of or level of income paid out by the fund. The performance data comparison presented is intended to illustrate the Fund’s historical performance as compared with historical performance of widely quoted market indices. There are various important differences that may exist between the Fund and the stated indices that may affect the performance of each. The Fund’s benchmark is the FTSE Canada Universe Bond Index, which is comprised of Canadian investment grade bonds and has significantly different portfolio duration characteristics. The FTSE Canada Universe Bond Index consists of a broadly diversified selection of investment-grade Government of Canada, provincial, corporate and municipal bonds issued domestically in Canada. The Fund's geographic, sector and credit quality exposure may differ from that of the benchmark. The Fund may hold cash while the benchmark does not.
