Fund Category List
When evaluating funds for category placement the committee first screens for the narrowest, most precise definitions. Examples of categories with narrow definitions would be Target Date Portfolios, Financial Services Equity, Real Estate Equity, Small/Mid Cap Equity, and Alternative Strategies. If funds meet the narrower definitions, they are categorized in the appropriate CIFSC category. If not, the funds are subjected to the criteria of other fund categories. Because this methodology is employed, it is important to be aware of all fund category definitions. It is insufficient to apply the criteria of a single fund category to determine a fund's candidacy, for any given CIFSC category.
Global Fixed Income
Funds in the Global Fixed Income category must invest less than 90% of their fixed income holdings in Canadian dollar issues. In addition, these funds must invest primarily in investment-grade fixed income securities (BBB or equivalent rating or higher) and not more than 25% of the portfolio’s holdings are invested in non-investment grade securities.
