Fund Overview

The Equitable Balanced fund will actively manage allocations between multiple asset classes based on the relative appeal of each based on economic and market conditions and the portfolio manager's outlook for each asset class. The portfolio manager may use a variety of analytical methods, including fundamental and technical analysis, to establish the positioning of the fund. The portfolio may assume limited exposures to commodity related investments or other alternative asset classes. Exposures to fixed income will generally be via holding units in the Equitable Canadian Bond fund. Investments in equities and other asset classes will be achieved primarily through the use of exchange traded funds. The objective of the fund is to provide both capital appreciation and income by investing in a diversified portfolio of fixed income and equity investments.
