CIC offers a variety of investment products, including Canadian and U.S. equities and fixed-income for balanced and specialist mandates. Specialist mandates include expertise in socially responsible investing, Canadian equities, U.S. equities, and fixed-income, such as interest rate anticipation, interest rate plus, high yield, short-term, long-term and duration constrained bonds. The firm's equity portfolios are actively managed. Top-down sector emphasis is applied to construct Canadian equity portfolios. The equity team formulates a portfolio strategy based on the themes and sectors that benefit from the forecast environment. Within these sectors, value and growth companies, with a bias to value, are selected. Excellent company management, product momentum, a strong balance sheet and a stock price that has not yet discounted the company's potential are all characteristics of their Canadian equity portfolios. CIC's active fixed-income style applies multiple investment strategies to the management of bonds. Based on economic and market forecasts derived from our top-down approach, the fixed-income team employs a range of investment strategies, such as interest rate anticipation, yield curve management, trading among sectors, individual security selection and credit analysis to moderate risk and enhance portfolio returns. The firm uses a team approach to investment management. Portfolio managers, specialized by asset class, operate from the same investment outlook and participate in the asset mix decision.

Mavrix Fund Management focuses on the development of concentrated portfolios. The firm seeks superior returns by investing in fewer companies, underweighting and overweighting industry sectors where appropriate, trading more actively where suitable opportunities exist and focusing on investments in small- and mid-cap companies that are the subject of less published analytical research. Mavrix invests primarily in the stocks of Canadian and US companies in the finance, non-energy minerals and energy minerals sectors. The firm invests across all market-caps, with emphasis on the stocks of small-cap companies.
