Information on this site

This website is a publication of Russell Investments Canada Limited ("Russell Investments"). The information contained herein (the "information") has been obtained from sources that we believe to be reliable, but its currency, accuracy and completeness are not guaranteed. The information is subject to change without notice. Russell Investments reserves the right at any time and without notice to change, amend, or cease publication of the information. The content of this website is for general information purposes only and is not intended to provide specific individual advice. It is made available on an "as is" basis. Russell Investments does not make any warranty or representation regarding the information and will not be held liable for inaccuracies in the information presented.

All materials contained on this website are proprietary to Russell Investments and any unauthorized use of the contents in whatsoever manner is strictly prohibited.

Information about mutual funds

The Russell Investments' funds are offered through registered investment professionals in each relevant Canadian jurisdiction. Commissions, trailing commissions, management fees and expenses all may be associated with mutual fund investments.

The indicated rates of return are the historical annual compounded total returns including changes in share or unit value and reinvestment of all dividends or distributions, and do not take into account sales, redemption, distribution or optional charges or income taxes payable by any security holder that would have reduced returns. Mutual funds are not guaranteed, their values change frequently and past performance may not be repeated. Money market mutual fund securities are not covered by the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation or by any other government deposit insurer. There can be no assurances that the fund will be able to maintain its net asset value per security at a constant amount or that the full amount of your investment will be returned to you. Past performance may not be repeated. Even though all investments carry some level of risk, we believe risk can be managed through multiple levels of diversification. As with any type of portfolio structuring, attempting to reduce risk and/or increase return could, at certain times, unintentionally reduce returns.

Please read the relevant prospectus or offering document before investing. Copies of each fund's prospectus or offering document are available from your investment advisor or Russell Investments Canada Limited. Additional information about the prospectused funds is available in the Annual Information Form, management reports of fund performance and financial statements of those funds. These documents are incorporated by reference into the fund's prospectus, which means that they are legally part of the prospectus, just as if they were printed as part of it. You can obtain a copy of these documents at your request and at no cost by calling Russell Investments toll free at 1-888-509-1792 or by sending us an email at canada@russellinvestments.com.
