Our “pension-style” portfolios provide opportunity as well as safety for Canadian investors.
Here are two reasons we diversify your funds outside of Canada:
- Canada represents only 3% of the world’s market capitalization.
- Investing internationally diversifies risk.
While our fund managers do invest inside Canada, even our “Canadian” funds have invested the maximum (up to 50%) internationally.
The following four charts clearly demonstrate how Canadians benefit from international diversification:
Compare: Canadian economic growth – last 10 years – among developed countries
Compare: Real GDP per Capita in Canada vs U.S. – Collapsed since 2015
Compare: Since 2015 Canadian investment funds flow to the USA (due to different economic policies).
Compare: Standard of Living – Economists have named the last 10 years “The Lost Decade” for Canadian Economic opportunity
Although we are right next to America we have very different economic and market outcomes.
Unfortunately, Canada has fallen behind among other developed countries as well.
Fortunately, we can invest in the best companies anywhere in the world!
