Fund Strategy
The Fund seeks long term return potential through concentrated investments primarily in North American equities.
Investment Process
The Fund will tend to follow a concentrated investment approach where selected core holdings and industry sectors may be overweighted because the manager has particular conviction and or specialized expertise. Investments are made primarily in mid-to- large cap companies believed to be trading at a discount to their intrinsic value and that have sustainable competitive advantages. Geographic and sector allocations may vary significantly over time.
Investor Profile
- Sophisticated investors who are looking for long-term capital appreciation through a concentrated portfolio strategy with moderate to high volatility.

Commissions, trailing commissions, management fees, performance fees and expenses all may be associated with mutual fund investments. Offering of securities in this fund are made pursuant to a Confidential Offering Memorandum (OM) only to those investors who meet certain eligibility or minimum purchase requirements. Important information, including this fund’s fundamental investment objective is contained in the OM which may be obtained from Arrow Capital Management Inc. Please read the OM before investing.
The indicated rates of return are the historical annual compounded total returns net of fees and expenses payable by the fund (except for figures of one year or less, which are simple total returns) including changes in security value and reinvestment of all dividends/distributions and do not take into account sales, redemption, distribution or optional charges or income taxes payable by any securityholder that would have reduced returns. Mutual funds are not guaranteed, their values change frequently, and past performance may not be repeated.
The rates of return are used only to illustrate the effects of the compound growth rate and are not intended to reflect future values or returns on investment in an investment fund.
The “Growth of $100,000” chart shows the final value of a hypothetical $100,000 investment in securities in this class/series of the fund as at the end of the investment period indicated and is not intended to reflect future values or returns on investment in such securities.
The risk level of a fund has been determined in accordance with a standardized risk classification methodology in National Instrument 81-102, that is based on the fund’s historical volatility as measured by the 10-year standard deviation of the fund’s returns. Where a fund has offered securities to the public for less than 10 years, the standardized methodology requires that the standard deviation of a reference mutual fund or index that reasonably approximates the fund’s standard deviation be used to determine the fund’s risk rating. Please note that historical performance may not be indicative of future returns and a fund’s historical volatility may not be indicative of future volatility.
