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 Basket will be invested in various types of fixed-income securities in order to optimize, through active management, the return of the fixed income component of an investor’s portfolio. The global duration of the portfolio will be maintained within a spread of 2.5 years, relative to the duration of the DEX Universe Bond Index. Your Investment Advisor may provide you with the complete Investment Policy Statement.
