Concert Funds – A Symphony of Investments
Primerica Concert™ Allocation Series of Funds (Concert Funds) is an actively managed solution designed to help Canadian families reach their financial goals through all market environments. The Concert Funds are designed to provide a simple way to have all your assets working together — in a plan that suits your personal situation. The Concert Funds consist of six different Concert Funds of professionally managed mutual funds. Each Concert Fund invests in a number of carefully selected mutual funds which encompass a variety of investments, market sectors, and management styles. PFSL Fund Management Ltd.("PFSL") is the investment manager for the Concert Funds. PFSL manages the overall day-to-day affairs and operations, provides administrative services and is responsible for all investment decisions for the Concert Funds.
TELUS Heath Investment Management ("THIM"), has established the investment strategies for each Concert Fund and makes recommendations to us on the specific underlying funds to be invested in by each Concert Fund. The Concert Funds are actively managed, with LifeWorks providing ongoing oversight and recommendations.
The underlying mutual funds in which the Concert Funds invest are currently selected from AGF Group of Funds, managed by leading Canadian investment firm, AGF Investments Inc. ("AGF"). AGF is also responsible for advising on daily trades required to implement the specific underlying fund recommendations of LifeWorks in respect of each Concert Fund as approved by PFSL.
