Cardinal Portfolios

Cardinal structures client portfolios uniquely for each and every client. Our initial discussions will first help us to understand your needs and goals so that we can better recommend a portfolio that will be best suited for you. We have over a dozen mandates to select from ranging from all equities, to balanced, in variety of global mixes and uniquely suited to an investment goal of growth or income. Our clients will be invested in a combination that is best suited to them, that fits with their overall risk tolerance and investment goals. We structure our portfolios in separately managed accounts that own individual securities. For smaller accounts we will utilize our three investment pools, which are all managed in-house and help us to structure the best possible portfolios to meet our clients needs. Find out more information on our portfolios' performance here.

Cardinal Pools

The Cardinal Pools are available for Cardinal clients wishing to invest accounts that are below the minimum portfolio size for our separately managed accounts.  The Canadian Equity Pool is invested primarily in common shares of Canadian companies and is managed in the same style as accounts within our Canadian Equity Composite.  The Foreign Equity Pool is invested in common shares of U.S. and international companies, opening clients up to diversification available outside of Canada. The Income Pool maintains the same conservative nature as our bond portfolios and invests in a combination of corporate bonds, government bonds and preferred shares.

The concept behind launching our Pools was to provide a vehicle for clients to invest their smaller accounts at a low cost, and still receive the same excellent diversification that can be built in a larger, separately managed account. It also provides greater flexibility tor clients that draw income from their accounts as trading costs can be minimized through the use of a pool. Please contact us if you would like more information about the Cardinal Pools.
