KEY REASONS TO INVEST

  1. Monthly Income An attractive cash-alternative with monthly distribution* yields expected to be in excess of some other short-term instruments, like bank deposits and cashable GICs**.
  2. Stability and Security The Fund invests primarily in ultra-short-term T-Bills issued and backed by the Federal and Provincial Governments of Canada which afford very little duration risk.
  3. Actively Managed Guardian Capital’s experienced fixed income team tactically positions the Fund amongst Canadian T-Bills with 0-6 month maturities, depending on the Manager's view of the best opportunities.

*As at Monday December 2nd, updated weekly. Yield to Maturity (YTM) at Cost: The YTM (at Cost) shown is the weighted average Yield to Maturity at Cost of each of the underlying fixed income securities in the portfolio, net of cash. Yield to Maturity at Cost means the percentage rate of return paid if the fixed income security is held to its maturity date from the original time of purchase. The calculation is based on the coupon rate, length of time to maturity, and original price of the underlying fixed income securities. This is not the yield, distribution rate or performance return of the Fund and is not intended to represent the distribution or return experience of any unitholder. It is only intended to give investors an idea a particular portfolio characteristic of the underlying securities held in the Fund’s portfolio.

**The Fund does not have a targeted distribution. Monthly distributions of income, if any, on ETF Units will be paid in cash, whereas monthly distributions of income, if any, on Mutual Fund Units will be automatically reinvested in additional Mutual Fund Units, unless a Unitholder instructs the Manager to pay the distribution in cash.

***Cashable GICs are typically redeemable after a 30-day hold period, as opposed to non-cashable GICs, which tend to offer higher interest rates but are locked in until the maturity date, with redemption penalties for early withdrawal.

Disclaimer: The information contained on this Fund page is designed to provide you with general information related to the mutual fund or ETF (the “Fund”) and is not intended to be comprehensive investment advice applicable to the circumstances of the individual. We strongly recommend you to consult with a financial advisor prior to making any investment decisions.

The Inception Date is the start date of investment performance for the Fund and may not coincide with the date the Fund or series was first offered for sale under a prospectus or its legal date of creation.

The Historical NAV (net asset value) chart above does not represent the performance of the Fund. It is shown to illustrate the daily movement of the NAV per Unit, which includes certain fees and expenses of the Fund but does not include reinvested distributions. FOR ETFs ONLY: Please note that an ETF’s Units trade on the TSX, where investors will generally buy and sell the ETF’s Units at Market Price, which may be more or less than the value of the daily NAV. The NAV and the Market Price do not include any brokerage commissions or other trading fees, which may be incurred by an investor for buying or selling Units of the ETF.

The Risk Rating classification of the Fund has been determined in accordance with a standardized risk classification methodology in National Instrument 81-102, which is based on the Fund’s historical volatility as measured by the 10-year standard deviation of the Fund’s returns. Where a fund has offered securities to the public for less than 10 years, the standardized methodology requires that the standard deviation of a reference mutual fund or index that reasonably approximates the fund’s standard deviation be used to determine the fund’s risk rating. Please note that historical performance may not be indicative of future returns and the Fund’s historical volatility may not be indicative of future volatility.

The Management Fee is the fee paid to the Fund’s Manager for managing the investment portfolio and for the day-to-day operations of the Fund.

The Management Expense Ratio ("MER") represents the trailing 12-month management expense ratio, which reflects the cost of running the Fund, inclusive of applicable taxes including HST, GST and QST (excluding certain portfolio transaction costs) as a percentage of daily average net asset value the period, including the Fund’s proportionate share of any underlying fund(s) expenses, if applicable. The MER reported herein is from the Fund’s most recent Management Report of Fund Performance ("MRFP").

The Rate of Return indicated in the charts above are used only to illustrate the effects of the compound growth rate and are not intended to reflect the future value of the Fund or returns on investment in the Fund.

The Growth of $10,000 chart shows the final value of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in securities of this series of the Fund as at the end of the investment period indicated and is not intended to reflect future values or returns on investment in such securities.

Material Events: For any major events that may affect the performance of a Fund in the last 10 years, including, where applicable, its participation in an amalgamation or merger with another fund or a change in its investment objectives or portfolio advisor, please refer to the Fund’s most recent prospectus in the section entitled "Name, Formation and History of the Funds". The performance of a Fund may have been different had events such as these not taken place.

*Please note that a Fund will not be assigned a fund-level Sustainability Rating by Morningstar® if it is new or does not have a sufficient enough portion of its assets under management qualified for rating according to Morningstar's Sustainability Rating for Fund Methodology. Excluded from Qualified Holdings are short positions, cash and currency, derivatives and synthetic holdings; similarly, municipal bonds, commodities, real estate, and alternative investment types are not considered corporate or sovereign and are not currently eligible to contribute toward the overall rating.

For this reason a “money market” fund will generally not receive a Morningstar® Sustainability Rating.

Definitions and Summaries of the Morningstar® Ratings and Methodologies:

The Morningstar® Sustainability Rating™ is a ranking of a fund’s ESG risks relative to that fund’s Morningstar® Global Category peers, and is updated monthly. It provides a measure of how well the issuing companies of the securities within a fund’s portfolio are managing their financially material ESG risks. The Morningstar® Sustainability Rating is depicted by globe icons where 5 globes equals High ranking (lower ESG risk) and 1 globe equals Low ranking (higher ESG risk) compared to category peers. A higher Sustainability Rating represents lower ESG risk relative to a fund's peer group.

The Morningstar® Sustainability Rating is calculated from the combined proportional Portfolio Corporate Sustainability Rating and Portfolio Sovereign Sustainability Rating, for the trailing 12 months on long-only positions. A Morningstar® Sustainability Rating is assigned to any fund that has either or both a Corporate and Sovereign Portfolio Sustainability Score™, and which requires i) that at least 67.00% of the fund's underlying assets are Qualified Holdings that are eligible to be rated and ii) is within a Morningstar® Global Category with at least 30 scored funds; therefore, the rating is not limited to funds with explicit sustainable or responsible investment mandates. Excluded from Qualified Holdings are short positions, cash and currency, derivatives and synthetic holdings; similarly, municipal bonds, commodities, real estate, and alternative investment types are not considered corporate or sovereign and are not currently eligible to contribute toward the overall rating.

Morningstar® Portfolio Sustainability Scores The Morningstar® Sustainability Rating framework, which was historically based on a single sustainability score, is now a modular approach, based on multiple sustainability sleeve scores to provide a more comprehensive assessment of ESG risk through multiple lenses. Morningstar® determines whether a fund’s eligible portfolio holdings can be classified under a Corporate or Sovereign framework, and each holding can only contribute to one, not both. In some cases, only one of the corporate and sovereign scores is calculated because the fund’s portfolio does not have sufficient sovereign or corporate exposure within its holdings.


The Morningstar® Portfolio Corporate Sustainability ScoreTM is an asset-weighted average of Sustainalytics’ ESG Risk Ratings* for corporate issuers in a fund’s portfolio, based on 12-month historical holdings, updated monthly. The Sustainalytics' ESG Risk Rating measures the degree to which a company's economic value may be at risk driven by ESG factors. To receive a Portfolio Corporate Sustainability Score, at least 67.00% of a fund’s corporate issuer holdings (long positions only) must have an ESG Risk Rating. The Portfolio Corporate Sustainability Score ranges between 0 to 100, with a higher score indicating that a fund has, on average, more of its assets invested in companies with high ESG risk. A fund with a lower score indicates lower ESG risk.


The Morningstar® Portfolio Sovereign Sustainability ScoreTM is an asset-weighted average of Sustainalytics’ Country Risk Ratings* for sovereign issuers in a fund’s portfolio, based on 12-month historical holdings, updated monthly. The Sustainalytics' Country Risk Rating measures the risk to a country's long-term prosperity and economic development by assessing its wealth and its ability to managing its wealth sustainably. To receive a Portfolio Sovereign Sustainability Score, at least 67.00% of a fund's sovereign issuer holdings (long only) must have a Country Risk Rating. The Portfolio Sovereign Sustainability Score ranges between 0 to 100, with a higher score indicating that a fund has, on average, more of its assets invested in sovereign issuers with high ESG risk. A fund with a lower score indicates lower ESG risk.


The Morningstar® Sustainability Pillar Scores™ are provided to help investors understand the contribution of each to a fund’s overall ESG risk, as it breaks out the Portfolio Corporate Sustainability Score for a fund into separate Environmental, Social, Governance and Unallocated ESG Risk pillars. It is based on Sustainalytics’ ESG Risk Ratings for corporate issuer securities, shown as a percentage of total, and is updated monthly.
* The rating methodology employed by Sustainalytics can be found on their website or by clicking on the following links: ESG Risk Ratings Methodology Abstract https://connect.sustainalytics.com/hubfs/INV/Methodology/Sustainalytics_ESG%20Ratings_Methodology%20Abstract.pdf or Country Risk Rating https://connect.sustainalytics.com/hubfs/INV%20-%20Reports%20and%20Brochure/Product%20Brochures/Country%20Risk%20Rating.pdf


The Morningstar® Low Carbon Designation™ is intended to allow investors to easily identify low-carbon funds across the global universe, and is calculated monthly. The designation is an indicator that the companies held in a fund’s portfolio are in general alignment with the transition to a low-carbon economy, and have low carbon risk scores and low levels of fossil fuel exposure.
The Low Carbon Designation is assigned to funds with a Historical Carbon Risk Score below 10 and a Historical Fossil Fuel Percentage of Covered Portfolio Involved of less than 7.00%. For a fund to receive a Historical Carbon Risk Score and the Historical Fossil Fuel Percentage of Covered Portfolio Involved, the percentage of eligible portfolio covered must meet or exceed 67.00%, respectively.
To determine Carbon Risk Scores and Fossil Fuel Involvement, Morningstar® uses Sustainalytics’ company-level data, based on the 12-month historical weighted averages. The Historical Carbon Risk Score measures the degree of material financial risk within a fund’s portfolio, calculated based on the underlying companies’ exposure to and management of material carbon issues. The Historical Fossil Fuel Involvement measures the percentage of a fund’s covered portfolio that is exposed to corporations that generate any revenue from involvement in fossil fuels.

Portfolio Carbon Risk Score measures of the degree of material financial risk posed by the transition to a low carbon economy, and was designed to support investors in evaluating the degree of carbon-related risk within the fund. It is an asset-weighted score based on Sustainalytics’ Carbon Risk Rating* of the companies held in the fund’s portfolio, calculated monthly, based on the most recent 12-month trailing average. The Sustainalytics’ Carbon Risk Rating measures the degree to which a company’s enterprise value is at risk, driven by factors related to the transition to a low carbon economy, or more technically speaking, the magnitude of a company’s unmanaged carbon risks. A company’s ability to reduce emissions and mitigate carbon risk using various management strategies is deducted from their overall carbon risk exposure score. A lower overall Portfolio Carbon Risk Score means lower carbon risk. The Portfolio Carbon Risk Score is ranked from 0 (Low) to 50+ (Severe).

Portfolio Fossil Fuel Involvement measures a portfolio’s exposure to companies involved in high-impact and conventional fossil fuels and is designed to highlight the percentage to which a fund’s portfolio is exposed to this most significant carbon risk, calculated monthly, based on the most recent 12-month trailing average. The Sustainalytics’ Fossil Fuels Involvement* examines a company’s involvement in conventional fossil fuels, such as thermal coal and oil & gas, as well as high-impact fossil fuels including oil sands, oil shale and arctic oil and gas. The Portfolio Fossil Fuel Involvement is shown as a percentage out of 100.00%, based on a rescaled, adjusted eligible portfolio of long positions less short positions.

Fund’s Distribution of Carbon Risk shows the percent of the fund’s portfolio holdings with negligible, low, medium, high, or severe Carbon Risk Score as calculated by Sustainalytics, shown as a percentage of the fund’s total Portfolio Carbon Risk Score, calculated monthly, based on the most recent 12-month trailing average.

Disclaimer

This distribution data is for informational purposes only and should not be construed to be tax advice. Please consult with your own tax advisor for advice.

Distributions are paid in Canadian dollars unless otherwise stated. Each Fund makes distributions in accordance with the distribution policy stated in the Simplified Prospectus. Each of the Funds has the ability to make distributions as returns of capital.

Distributions may consist of net income, dividends, net realized capital gains, and may also include return of capital. Distributions are determined by a variety of factors that occurred during the current tax year, including the gains realized on the disposition of securities by the Fund, the amount of dividend income and interest earned by the Fund, the volume of purchases and redemptions of Units of the Fund, and the amount of any unrealized appreciation of the Fund’s portfolio at year-end. If distributions paid by the Fund are greater than the performance of the Fund, distributions paid may include a return of capital and an investor's original investment will decrease. A return of capital is not taxable to the investor, but will generally reduce the adjusted cost base of the securities held for tax purposes. If the adjusted cost base falls below zero, investors will realize capital gains equal to the amount below zero.

Reinvested distributions are not paid in cash but instead remain invested in the Fund. To recognize that reinvested distributions have been allocated to investors for tax purposes the amounts of these distributions should be added to the adjusted cost base of the units held. The characterization of distributions for tax purposes (such as dividends/other income/capital gains etc.) will not be known for certain until after the Fund's tax year end. Therefore, investors will be informed of the tax characterization after year-end and not with each distribution. For tax purposes these amounts will be reported annually on official tax statements. Future distribution dates may be amended at any time.
