LowFund Objectives
The iShares Growth Core Portfolio Builder Fund seeks to provide long-term capital growth by investing by investing primarily in iShares ETFs, managed by Barclays Global Investors Canada Limited (Barclays Canada) or an affiliate, that provide exposure to equity securities and to one or more alternative asset classes, with the balance invested in those that provide exposure to fixed income securities. The fund will ordinarily invest in iShares ETFs, but may also use individual securities and/or derivatives to gain exposure to these asset classes. Barclays Canada will seek to create an asset allocation for the fund through a proprietary multi-factor selection process that seeks to identify and optimally diversify certain fundamental sources of return.
