This press release is not for dissemination in
the United States or for distribution to US news wire services.
Purpose Investments, Inc. (“Purpose”) is very
pleased to announce that Purpose Tactical Investment Grade Bond
Fund (“the Fund”) (TSX: BND) will change its name and investment
sub-advisor, effective December 3, 2018. There will be no change to
the ETF ticker symbol.
Effective December 3, 2018, the Purpose Tactical Investment
Grade Bond Fund will be known as Purpose Global Bond Fund. The
investment sub-advisor will change from Neuberger Berman Breton
Hill ULC to Neuberger Berman Investment Advisers LLC.
The name change coincides with broadening and enhancing the
Fund’s investment strategy to expand focus of the Fund’s
investments from North American investment-grade bonds to
investments in global investment-grade fixed income securities.
"The biggest challenge facing investors and advisors in today’s
rising-interest-rate environment is how to manage interest rate
risk and credit risk in their fixed-income portfolios," said Som
Seif, President and Chief Executive Officer of Purpose Investments.
"Passively holding bonds over the past 30 years has been extremely
rewarding. However, today, the reward relative to the risk of a
'buy and hold' passive bond portfolio is no longer as attractive.
With Purpose Global Bond Fund, we focus on maximizing the yield and
managing the duration and credit risks by utilizing an active,
fundamental approach to global fixed-income securities and combine
that with attractive fees. The result should be a better reward per
unit of risk in a bond portfolio."
