Alternative Asset Strategies
Often investors require that the returns on their investment
portfolio reach a certain target annually. During certain
periods of time, these returns are difficult to achieve when
investing 100% in the equity and bond markets. This is often
due to depressed economic conditions or global uncertainty.
Therefore, it has become more common for investors to invest
in alternative asset classes for two purposes:
- to minimize exposure to the equity or fixed income market
and
- to enhance returns.
MacNicol & Associates Asset Management Inc. currently
has 3 areas of investment opportunity outside of the traditional
equity and fixed income markets.
Millenium BullionFund
The world's first and only open-end mutual fund trust that
invests exclusively in equal proportions of unencumbered,
fully allocated gold, silver and platinum bullion.
The Millennium BullionFund's investment objective is to provide
a secure, convenient, low-cost, low-risk alternative for investors
seeking the benefits of capital preservation, appreciation,
portfolio diversification and hedging that only bullion ownership
can offer.
The Fund qualifies for Canadian RRSPs, RESPs, RRIFs and LIFs,
and offers both Canadian- and US-dollar denominated units
in several different classes. Each asset class is designed
to suit not only the requirements of Canadian retail and institutional
investors, but also of US and international institutional
investors, hedge funds and global accredited investors. |
