Investment goal

Combines a concentrated global equity portfolio with a high conviction U.S. and global fixed income allocation. Security selection is driven by bottom-up fundamental research. Managers look for valuation disparity in the market place to position the portfolio where the greatest risk/reward opportunities lie which typically runs counter to macro trends.

Key reasons to invest

An unconstrained, go-anywhere global bottom-up asset allocation strategy that will invest across multiple asset classes, sectors, regions, countries and currencies in pursuit of a strong total return.

A well-diversified, yet concentrated portfolio based on the highest conviction ideas of four experienced portfolio managers, that have more than 130 years combined investment experience

Continuous collaboration between teams, supported by Loomis Sayles’ deep global research platform, ensures only their best ideas are represented in the Fund.

The Morningstar Star Ratings displayed above are subject to change monthly.

The Morningstar Rating for Funds, often referred to as the Star Rating, is a data driven rating which compares how well a fund performed against similar funds. It is calculated by Morningstar Research Inc., an independent research firm. Morningstar groups funds based on the types of investments in the funds’ portfolios using CIFSC Fund categories. The Star Rating also considers the amount of risk a fund has taken to achieve its return. A more volatile fund will generally receive a lower rating than a steadier fund with the same return. Star Ratings are given for funds with at least a 3-year track record based on the fund’s Morningstar Risk Adjusted Return. The overall ranking is a weighted combination of the 3, 5 and 10 year ratings. Overall ratings are adjusted where a fund has less than 5 or 10 years of history.

Funds which rank in the top 10% of its category receive a 5-Star rating. Funds which rank in the next 22.5% receive a 4-Star rating. Funds which rank in the next 35% receive a 3-Star rating. Funds which rank in the next 22.5% receive a 2-Star rating. Funds which rank in the lowest 10% of its category receive a 1-Star rating. Star Ratings are based entirely on a mathematical evaluation of past performance. Though they could be used to identify funds to further evaluate and research, they should not be considered to be buy or sell recommendations from Morningstar.

For further information on the Star Rating, please refer to www.morningstar.ca.

Neither Morningstar nor its content providers are responsible for any damages or losses arising from any use of this information. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.

All fund performance and distribution information is based on each fund's net asset value per unit ("NAV") which is calculated in Canadian dollars. Information presented herein regarding NAV, performance and distribution is calculated into U.S. dollars by converting the corresponding Canadian dollar information into U.S. dollars using the daily exchange rate. The option to purchase a fund in U.S. dollars is offered as a convenience for investors who prefer to transact in U.S. dollars. The overall performance of the investment is the same, regardless of the currency in which an investor makes the purchase, as the same series is sold under either option. This purchase option does not hedge, or protect, against losses caused by fluctuations in the exchange rate between Canadian and U.S. dollars, nor does it negate the effect of any hedging strategy that may already be in place within a fund. Please read the prospectus for information on the U.S. Dollar Purchase Option or speak to your advisor.
