They utilize a bottom-up investment approach, with a primary investment objective of protecting principal in a declining market.
The Manager uses a manager selection process that leverages the global research capabilities of investment management consultant, NT Global Advisors, Inc., a Northern Trust Corporation affiliate, in aiming to identify and evaluate best in class investment managers for Scotia Private Pools.
