Portfolio Update
Quarterly Update
Despite a weak European economic backdrop, investors were encouraged by leaders’ aggressive measures to address the European sovereign debt crisis. The European CentralBank’s Outright Monetary Transaction plan, banking union proposal and restructured terms for Greek bailout loans all convinced investors that the risk of a euro breakup has substantially reduced. Serious efforts from U.S. lawmakers to avert the $600 billion fiscal cliff further underpinned market optimism during the quarter. The Canadian dollar weakened relative to most major currencies, leading to enhanced returns in Canadian dollar terms.
