Leith Wheeler
High Yield Bond Fund

Objective

To provide investors with a high level of income and the opportunity for capital appreciation by investing in a portfolio of primarily high-yielding fixed income securities issued by US, Canadian and international corporations.

Investment Style

We take a conservative, disciplined approach to managing the High Yield Bond Fund. We believe the key to investing in high yield bonds is investing in solid companies run by strong management teams that can navigate variable market conditions. The Fund is a concentrated portfolio made up of liquid securities, focused on high quality non-investment grade bonds with strong cash flows. The High Yield Bond Fund is available in both a Canadian currency-hedged option and an unhedged option.
