Fund Manager
Front Street Special Opportunities Canadian Fund Watch Video
Objective: Strong performance through an aggressive strategy, investing in Canadian equities and securities, companies that offer strong growth prospects and an opportunity for superior returns.
Performance is also derived by using alternative investment strategies including event-related special-situation investing, companies undergoing or undertaking tenders, mergers and acquisitions, liquidations, spin-offs and recapitalizations.
Diversification is achieved through individual company selection rather than a sector-weighted approach, and may engage in a large weighting in a single sector to achieve a rate of return.
