iA Financial introduces new segregated funds

Quebec City-based iA Financial Group announced the addition of five new segregated funds on Tuesday.

The insurance and wealth management company has added two new investment options from Fidelity Investments and Dynamic Funds to its U.S. equity fund lineup.

These include the Fidelity Insights Fund, which will be available for the first time as a segregated fund, and the American (Dynamic) Fund, a high-conviction fund that offers attractive growth potential, iA Finanical said in a release.

The firm has also introduced three specialty funds: the Emerging Markets Fund, managed by Jarislowsky Fraser; the Floating Rate Income Fund, managed by Jeff Sujitno of iA Clarington; and the Global Infrastructure (Dynamic) Fund.

“These new funds and changes are part of our objective of offering a comprehensive, high performance segregated fund lineup that includes complementary management styles, broader geographic coverage and most of the major asset classes,” said Pierre Vincent, iA Financial’s senior vice-president, distribution and product development, individual insurance retirement and savings.
