GCEI provides exposure to the Canadian equity market, targeting mid-to large-size companies with a history of paying and growing dividends. The fund will typically hold 15 to 30 securities that are actively managed and broadly diversified by sector. It aims for a high level of stable income and seeks a competitive dividend yield. The fund may also hold up to 10% individual foreign equities with significant business operations in Canada or are listed on an Exchange. Up to 10% of assets may be invested in other mutual funds. The fund may use derivatives but may do so solely for hedging foreign-denominated securities and currencies, as permitted by Canadian securities regulatory authorities. In response to adverse market conditions, the fund may also hold cash, money market instruments, bonds, or other debt securities for defensive purposes.
