Investment objective

  • Generate returns equal to the return of the benchmark, MSCI ACWI Index (CAD) (net), plus 2.0% per annum over a market cycle.
  • Maximize long-term total return while prudently managing investment risk relative to the benchmark.

Highlights

  • Diversified Global and Canadian Equity Strategies managed within a proprietary quantitative return, risk and portfolio construction framework.

  • Universe covering approximately 18,000 stocks spanning 23 developed and 27 emerging markets.

Investment philosophy

  • Multiple sources of added value based on the systematic evaluation of company fundamentals as well as opportunities created by mispricings.
  • The investment process must be rigorous, objective and applied with consistency and discipline.
  • Research must be driven by a strong synergistic relationship between three key elements: investment fundamentals, quantitative theory and empirical evidence.

Investment process

  • Continuous quantitative evaluation of fundamentals across stocks, industries and countries.
  • Proprietary return forecasts assess investment fundamentals and the opportunities created when prices do not reflect these fundamentals.
  • Proprietary risk model assesses systematic influences and stock-specific characteristics and events.
  • Portfolio construction seeks to optimize risk and return with consideration of transaction costs.
