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
This is a global portfolio that acts as a complement of the Canadian equity market. This portfolio allows for a reduction in volatility when it is combined with a Canadian equity portfolio. To reduce short- and medium- term volatility related to exchange-rate fluctuations, the portfolio will be structured to partly hedge this risk. Your investment Advisor may provide you with the Investment Policy Statement.
