What is a Basket?
It is an investment model that is managed by a professional portfolio manager on a discretionary basis in your brokerage account. You directly own its underlying securities and receive the dividends and/or interest paid.
Investment Strategy
The U.S. Growth & Income Basket consists mostly of U.S securities of large capitalization. While this allows for a diversified exposure to the U.S economy, it also provides the Basket with liquidity and a low turnover rate. The Basket consists of roughly 30 securities and risk will be controlled by defined parameters for the weighting of securities and sectors, and sector diversification. Your Investment Advisor may provide you with the complete Investment Policy Statement.
