| CI Investments has been managing money on behalf of Canadian investors
since 1965. In 1981, CI entered the global fund arena with the introduction
of CI Pacific Fund – one of the first funds in Canada devoted to Asian
markets. The company became known for its expertise in foreign funds and
adopted the name Canadian International Fund Management.
Over the years, CI expanded its lineup of funds to provide investors
with an increasingly comprehensive offering of Canadian, global and industry
funds. This growth was guided by a strategy of seeking the best available
portfolio managers.
CI is a leader in innovation. The company was, for example, the first
to offer tax-efficient funds with the introduction of CI Corporate Class.
CI also was a leader in introducing industry funds and was the first mutual
fund company to partner with an insurance company to offer segregated
funds.
In June 2005, CI adopted the name CI Investments to reflect its diverse
lineup of investment options, including mutual funds, segregated funds,
asset allocation programs, structured products and other alternative investments.
Today, CI Investments is a leading investment manager with
about $66 billion in assets under management. More than 1.7 million Canadians trust us to help
realize their financial goals.
CI is proud to partner with financial advisors across Canada, who offer
our funds to their clients. We believe investors are most successful when
they follow a sound financial plan developed with the assistance of a
qualified advisor.
CI is a subsidiary of CI
Financial Corp., which is listed on the Toronto Stock
Exchange under the symbol CIX. The CI Financial group of companies
had approximately $88 billion in fee-earning assets as of February 28,
2010.

Detailed
Oversight of the Funds
CI has dedicated specialists and a wide-ranging set of policies and procedures
in place to ensure the good governance of its funds and to provide oversight
of their portfolio management activities. These include:
- CI Investment Consulting, an experienced team of
investment experts who monitor the portfolio managers and the funds’
portfolios to ensure they are adhering to their mandates and performing
within expectations. This group also assisted in the design of CI's
managed solutions - Portfolio Series and Portfolio Select Series - and
plays a key role in maintaining these programs.
- The Compliance Department, whose duties include monitoring
trading activities by the funds' portfolio managers.
- The CI Investments Board of Governors, an independent
governance body of all CI Funds, providing impartial judgment on conflicts
of interest with a view to the best interests of the CI Funds and CI
Investments investors. The Board of Governors recommends the best course
of action to achieve a fair and reasonable result on any conflict of
interest issues, and CI takes into account its recommendation in accordance
with its fiduciary duty to the CI Funds. All of the members of the Board
are independent of CI.
