RBC Jantzi Canadian Equity Fund

Posted by on Apr 20, 2014 in Mutual Fund Updates | 0 comments

This fund invest only in Canadian companies that have strong corporate governance polices, stellar environmental records, and exemplary human rights practices. It avoids companies that are involved in weapons, tobacco, or nuclear power. The result is a well-diversified portfolio that has modestly outpaced the broader market on a one and three year basis, with comparable volatility. The biggest downside is the portfolio looks very similar to the S&P/TSX Composite. Investors may be better off investing in the iShares Jantzi Social Index ETF, which offers a comparable portfolio at a much lower cost.
