EdgePoint Canadian Growth & Income Portfolio
Investment Approach
The Portfolio seeks to provide long-term capital appreciation and income generation by investing primarily in Canadian equity and fixed-income securities. The portfolio management team looks for companies with strong competitive positions, long-term growth prospects and strong management teams and acquires ownership stakes in these companies at prices below their assessment of the company’s true value. The fixed-income approach includes an analysis of macro-economic factors affecting economic growth such as interest rates and monetary fiscal policy and also focuses on credit analysis to uncover relative value opportunities within specific sectors as well as across different sectors of the market.
The Portfolio may also invest in foreign securities. Foreign securities are not typically expected to exceed 10% of the net assets of the Portfolio at the time of purchase.
