Risk Management

RISK MANAGEMENTOur approach to risk management aligns with our objective to deliver both strong long-term absolute and

risk-adjusted returns

INVESTMENT SECURITY SELECTION• Invest where expected return potential

exceeds our estimate of the associated cost of equity

• Return potential assessed based on long term fundamentals, valuation analysis and consideration of inherently uncertain future fundamentals

• Focus on high quality businesses with appropriate capital structures and long term dividend stability

PORTFOLIO CONSTRUCTION• Target portfolio diversification on an inter and

intra sector basis• Recognize correlations among holdings• Individual weights strike a balance between

minimizing non-systematic risk and allowing for our best ideas to have a meaningful impact

• Variability of security weights in the portfolio is generally less than in the benchmark

PORTFOLIO RISK EVALUATION• Risks are continually reviewed to confirm that exposures are

UNDERSTOOD and consistent with our INTENT and CONVICTIONS

• Portfolio Risk Evaluation is supported by Franklin Templeton Investments’ independent Global Investment Performance Services, Portfolio Analysis and Investment Risk Group

Bissett EquitiesInvestment Style and Process

• Sector exposure is an outcome of our bottom up security selection process

• Sector over and under weightings reflect the availability of securities which meet our investment characteristics within each sector

• Due to our disciplined style significant sector over and under weightings occur

• Consequently, the Fund exhibits significant benchmark risk

• However, absolute return volatility is reduced due to our focus on businesses with more moderate revenue/cash flow/earnings volatility

For Broker/Dealer Use Only. Not for Distribution to the Public.

Fixed Income Investment Style and Process

• Generate above average yield-to-maturity and stable income- Overweight corporate issues - Rigorous macro research and analysis- Invest at inflection point of yield curve

• Manage investment risk through:- Laddered maturity schedule- Diversify corporate holdings; investment grade credits only- Thorough credit analysis

Performance Attribution12-Month Period Ended June 30, 2012

•The Fund returned 3.6%*, compared to the Fund’s custom benchmark**, which returned -2.5% for the 12-month period

Contributors:• Canadian equities posted positive returns in comparison to sharp declines in the benchmark index

− Security selection and higher than benchmark exposure to the Telecommunications Services sector led to positive contribution

− Security selection in Industrials (Bird Construction, Russel Metals) added value and outweighed the lack of exposure to railway equities which were also strong during the period

− Security selection in the Energy sector (Mullen Group and Enbridge) contributed to performance during the period

− Low exposure to the Materials sector which was weak due to volatile commodity prices and poor stock performance

• U.S. equities outperformed the benchmark; however, contribution was partly offset as portfolio allocation was lower than the S&P 500 in the blended benchmark

Detractors:• Overweight and poor security selection in the domestic Consumer Discretionary sector

− Thomson Reuters, Reitman’s (Canada) posted disappointing results• Fixed Income was a slight drag on total portfolio performance notwithstanding decent absolute returns

− Overweight spread product and shorter than benchmark duration were negative factors*Series A.**15% DEX Universe Bond Index, 5% BMO Nesbitt Burns Preferred Share Index, 60% S&P/TSX Composite Total Return Index, 20% S&P 500 Total Return Index (CDN$).

Investment Outlook

• Canadian equity benchmarks are now lagging their U.S. counterparts after more than a decade of outperformance due to the greater resources exposure in our benchmark

• Evidence of slower economic growth as well as continued volatility in capital markets may limit the potential for further valuation expansion

• Defensive investments may be positioned for decent relative performance if the current environment persists

• Corporate earnings have been supported by aggressive cost cutting but opportunities to reduce expenses are declining; revenues have not recovered sufficiently to maintain the pace of earnings growth in the absence of more expense reduction

• Investors should expect a period of more modest capital appreciation; more meaningful contribution to total return from dividends than from capital gains is likely in the near term

• We expect that our defensive GARP investment style with an emphasis on yield should continue to deliver attractive returns with low volatility over the long-term
