Objective |
| The primary investment objective of the Meritas Jantzi Social Index Fund is to seek capital appreciation with current income being a secondary investment objective. The Fund will invest primarily in Canadian equity securities which comprise the JSI. |
|
Strategy |
| This Fund is based on the Jantzi Social Index with a few alterations. The JSI is a 60 stock index where the companies have been screened based on a series of social criteria. At present, we are unable to provide assurance that we can screen all companies with participation in the area of pornography. This Fund may invest in foreign securities up to the foreign content limit under the Tax Act. |
