IA Clarington Loomis Global Allocation Fund is modeled after the Loomis Sayles Global Allocation Fund (LSGAF) Strategy, a U.S.-based mandate with a 25-year track record. In February 2015, iA Clarington brought the LSGAF Strategy to Canada by appointing Loomis Sayles portfolio manager for IA Clarington Loomis Global Allocation Fund. The purpose of the information presented on the LSGAF Strategy is to indicate the portfolio manager's ability to manage a fund that may have similar investment objectives and/or strategies to IA Clarington Loomis Global Allocation Fund. The Loomis Sayles Global Allocation Fund (LSGAF) Strategy is not available for sale in Canada. It does not imply similar or future performance. There may be differences between the funds that may affect performance, including but not limited to fee structures.
Quartile rankings are based on fund returns for periods ending August 31, 2023, 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. The performance data comparison presented is intended to illustrate the Fund's historical performance as compared with historical performance of widely quoted indices. There are various important differences that may exist between the Fund and the stated indices that may affect the performance of each. The benchmark is a blend of Bloomberg Global Aggregate Bond Index (CAD Currency Hedged) (40%) and MSCI AC World Index (60%). The blended benchmark presented is intended to provide a more realistic representation of the general asset classes in which the Fund invests. The Bloomberg Global Aggregate Index is a flagship measure of global investment grade debt from twenty-eight local currency markets. This multi-currency benchmark includes treasury, government-related, corporate and securitized fixed-rate bonds from both developed and emerging markets issuers. There are four regional aggregate benchmarks that largely comprise the Global Aggregate Index: the US Aggregate, the Pan-European Aggregate, the Asian-Pacific Aggregate, and the Canadian Aggregate Indices. The MSCI AC World Index (MSCI ACWI) is a free float-adjusted market capitalization weighted equity index comprising 23 developed and 27 emerging market country indexes. The Fund’s market capitalization, geographic, sector, credit quality and currency risk exposure may differ from that of the benchmark. The Fund may hold cash while the benchmark does not. Overall, the Fund’s bond and equity exposure can differ because the Fund does not use a fixed ratio similar to the benchmark. It is not possible to invest directly in market indices. The performance comparison is for illustrative purposes only and does not imply future performance.
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.
Commissions, trailing commissions, management fees, brokerage fees and expenses all may be associated with mutual fund investments, including investments in exchange-traded series of mutual funds. The information presented herein may not encompass all risks associated with mutual funds. Please read the prospectus before investing. Mutual funds are not guaranteed, their values change frequently and past performance may not be repeated.
