HAD was launched on October 12, 2012 and seeks long-term returns primarily through maximized interest income and capital appreciation. The ETF invests primarily in a portfolio of Canadian debt (including debt-like securities) denominated in Canadian dollars.

Sub-advised by Fiera Capital Corporation, one of Canada’s largest fixed income managers, HAD seeks superior risk adjusted returns by offering the flexibility to alter its duration in anticipation of interest rate changes.
