the advantage of integrating the investment visions and strategies of several
managers while maintaining the positive effects of an efficient allocation among
asset classes.

preserve capital through a selection of fixed-income securities. They are

income funds and diversified funds, but they are more risky.

Foreign Equity funds allow you to take advantage of the financial
performance of foreign markets. They are composed primarily of stock of American
and foreign companies. They provide good investment portfolio diversification
but entail a high level of risk.

Specialty funds allow to profit from the financial performance of various
stock markets and sometimes even from specific sectors. Because the funds are
specialized, they generally have a higher level of risk.
