Prior to August 24, 2022 this Fund was offered via Offering Memorandum only and was not a reporting issuer. Historical audited financial statements for this period are archived here.

Accredited investors or certain other qualified investors may also purchase securities through Maxam Capital Management Ltd in reliance on certain prospectus exemptions available in National Instrument 45-106. Investors should consult with their own investment advisor and obtain a copy of our applicable Simplified Prospectus and Fund Facts documents before investing in the Fund.

Downside Capture Ratio is a measure of the Fund’s performance in down markets relative to the S&P/TSX TRI.  “Beta” measures the volatility of the Fund relative to a selected index or benchmark; a lower Beta typically implies less market risk, while a higher Beta typically implies more market risk.
