A balanced asset mix ensures that investors are not dependent on any one asset class or security type to provide returns. CI Investment Consulting combines its portfolio construction expertise with ongoing comprehensive research and recommendations from State Street Global Advisors, a world leader in asset allocation, to create portfolios designed to capture evolving opportunities in the various asset classes. This report is designed to provide you with an up-to-date portfolio overview of the, including the allocations across asset class, geographic region, equity sector and market capitalization. The arrows indicate whether the allocation for each category has increased or decreased since the previous quarter-end.

4 Portfolio Commentary The portfolio declined 1.8% during the quarter, underperforming its benchmark (25% S&P/TSX Composite Index, 40% FTSE TMX Canada Universe Bond Index, 35% MSCI World Index, C$), which fell 1.4%. Exposure to dividend-paying equities and global bonds contributed to underperformance, which was offset somewhat by our positions in cash and high-yield bonds. Overall, bond markets sold off during the quarter on improving economic data while stock markets took a breather despite the positive news. While enhanced diversification relative to the broad-based indexes reduced portfolio volatility as intended, it did not make strong contributions to the portfolio s returns. We have been holding higher than normal cash levels, which helped to dampen volatility and mitigate declines. Despite recent short-term volatility, it is important to preserve a longer-term view. We continue to take advantage of the opportunities market corrections typically create and maintain our discipline of allocating assets to both preserve capital and grow investor account balances in a prudent manner. Bond yields in Europe rose from record lows, elevating yields elsewhere, as the European Central Bank s monetary policy began to support expectations for economic growth and higher inflation. Stock markets in North America and Europe declined, while stocks in Japan gained. Japanese equities were boosted by the Bank of Japan s quantitative easing program and stock purchases by quasi-government organizations. In Canada, shares of commodities producers slid with base metals prices amid worries that demand will weaken in China, the largest user of industrial metals. Although crude oil prices recovered somewhat after last year s sharp decline, their reduced level continued to have a negative impact on energy producers. In the portfolio s income portion, Signature Corporate Bond Fund added relative value, benefiting from its exposure to high-yield corporate bonds. Signature Global Bond Fund s exposure to foreign-denominated government bonds contributed to underperformance, as yields rose during the quarter. Income-generating equities held within Cambridge Income Corporate Class detracted from relative performance. We continued to hold cash and U.S. dollars as we wait for opportunities in the market. U.S. currency offers reasonable value and has a unique effect of being a hedge against rising interest rates. The government debt market in Canada continues to offer very low yields across all maturities, including longer-term issues. Meanwhile, interest rate risk, as measured by duration, has increased in recent years. It will be challenging to earn a return in excess of inflation during the next three to five years. We favour securities that offer more attractive returns than those offered by government bonds, including foreign-denominated issues, short-duration investmentgrade bonds and high-yield corporate bonds and highquality dividend-paying equities. Having a diversified and flexible framework allows us to take advantage of changes in market valuations and provide steady income returns. We continue to adjust our bond weightings to manage downside risk and volatility. Our portfolio is positioned with less interest rate sensitivity and enhanced diversification relative to the benchmark. In the portfolio s equity portion, holdings in all global regions detracted from performance. The sector allocation of the portfolio is more diversified than that of the Canadian economy and the S&P/TSX Composite Index. We continued to have underweight exposure to the resource sectors, and overweight positions in information technology and the consumer sectors. Our exposure to international equity was reduced, as economies in Europe and Japan are struggling to achieve meaningful growth. We believe emerging market equities are attractively valued, and modestly increased this weighting in the portfolio. These adjustments allowed us to enhance return potential while adhering to the portfolio s risk profile. The Canadian equity portion is positioned quite differently from its benchmark, the S&P/TSX Composite Index. It has underweight allocations to the resources and financials sectors, and overweight positions in other areas such as information technology, consumer staples and consumer discretionary positioning that we believe enhances risk-adjusted return potential. Signature Select Canadian Corporate Class underperformed the benchmark due in part to its health care and consumer discretionary holdings. 16
5 In our U.S. equity component, Synergy American Equity Corporate underperformed due to its holdings in information technology and consumer discretionary. Hedging a holdings in portion of our U.S.-dollar exposure added value, as the currency weakened against the Canadian dollar. The U.S. equity portion favours areas of the market that are tied to economic growth, while maintaining underweight positions in defensive sectors. Among our international funds, Signature International Corporate Class underperformed, due to its underweight position in Japan and its U.S.-dollar exposure. The international equity portion had overweight allocations to information technology and consumer discretionary, with underweight positions in materials and industrials. Geographically, it had overweight positions in emerging markets, mainly in Asia and Latin America, and underweight allocations to the U.K., Australia, and Europe. Emerging markets produced mixed performance during the quarter. China s Shanghai Composite Index ended the threemonth period with a 14.1% gain in local currency terms, but began a sharp decline in late June and continued to lose ground early in the third quarter, prompting government intervention to support prices. The portfolio has minimal direct exposure to China. Our long-term outlook for emerging markets remains favourable, particularly in the Asia-Pacific region, where economic fundamentals are relatively robust and equity market valuations appear attractive. We continue to have a modest allocation to emerging market equities to balance our objectives of reducing risk while increasing potential returns for investors.
