The Funds investment objectives are to provide holders of Preferred shares with fixed, cumulative, preferential, quarterly cash distributions and to return the original issue price of 10.00 per Preferred share to shareholders at maturity; and to provide holders of Class A shares with regular monthly cash distributions, targeted to be at least 0.10 per Class A share, and the opportunity for growth in Net Asset Value per Class A share. The Fund invests, on an approximately equally weighted basis, in a portfolio consisting primarily of equity securities of Canadian dividend growth companies. In addition, the Fund may hold up to 20% of the total assets of the portfolio in global dividend growth companies for diversification and improved return potential, at the Managers discretion.

Does anyone have any more information on this change??

The old portfolio was static with holdings in four sectors overweight in financials, the new one will be actively managed with increased diversification across seven sectors and a weight in financials more closely matching the one third weighting on the TSX. They have added Brookfied Infrastructure Partners, Cdn Apartment REIT, CN Rail, Canadian Natural Resources, Fortis and Restaurant Brands (Burger King, Tim Hortons).
