Disclaimers
* The Fund’s MER is made up of the management fee and operating expenses. The Fund’s annual management fee is 1.10% of the Fund’s value. Because this fund is new, its operating expenses are relatively large in comparison to the fund’s assets. Mawer Investment Management Ltd. has committed to subsidize the operating expenses of the Fund from its inception so that the MER is no more than 1.40%; without the subsidy the MER may be higher. Mawer Investment Management Ltd. reserves the right to terminate the subsidy at any time. Management plans to review the subsidy periodically with the intent to remove the subsidy once the MER of the Fund has stabilized. After the subsidized period ends, the actual MER for the Fund may be higher than 1.40%.
The trading expense ratio represents total commissions and other portfolio transaction costs expressed as an annualized percentage of daily average net assets during the year.
Performance has been presented for the A-series mutual funds and has been calculated net of fees. Performance has been expressed in Canadian dollars.
