The Fund pursues its objective by investing primarily in common stocks of US companies with the potential for long-term growth of capital using a “value” approach. The “value” approach emphasises investments in companies that are undervalued relative to their intrinsic worth. It will typically seek attractively valued companies that are improving their free cash flow and improving their returns on invested capital. These companies may also include special situations companies that are experiencing management changes and/or are temporarily out of favour. No more than 10% of the net asset value of the Fund may be invested in securities traded on any one developing market and the aggregate amount of the Fund which may be invested in securities traded on the developing markets is 20% of the net asset value of the Fund.
