The fund is passively managed to track an index of investment-grade, inflation-linked Canadian bonds. The portfolio is composed of both corporate and government bonds, which may include federal, provincial, and municipal bonds. These inflation-linked bonds must have a minimum credit rating of BBB with remaining maturity of at least one year. If it is not possible or practical to hold all the constituent securities, the fund may utilize a representative sampling approach in which securities are chosen to provide the same investment characteristics of the index. The index is rebalanced daily.
