Investment Strategy
The Fund seeks to achieve a high rate of interest income and long-term performance in excess of the benchmark through TD Asset Management Inc.'s (TDAM) active fundamental fixed income approach. The Fund expands its investments beyond the longer maturity Canadian bond universe to global and non-investment grade bonds to seek incremental value over the long term.
TDAM's active fundamental fixed income philosophy is grounded in an established set of guiding principles that stress extensive independent credit research and sound yield and credit curve analysis. TDAM believes that applying this approach through a highly disciplined portfolio construction methodology is the most predictable way to help generate competitive risk-adjusted returns when measured against any given benchmark.
