Investors Group is adding two new funds: IG Putnam U.S. High Yield Income Fund; and IG Mackenzie Global Precious Metals Class.

IG Putnam U.S. High Yield Income Fund aims to provide a high level of current income and the potential for moderate capital appreciation by investing primarily in U.S. high yielding investments. Putnam Investments has proven investment expertise in this asset class.

IG Mackenzie Global Precious Metals Class aims to provide long-term capital growth by investing primarily in equity securities of companies from around the world involved in the precious metals industry. It may also invest directly in certain precious metals. Mackenzie Financial Corp. has demonstrated strength in managing this asset class.

“The addition of these new mandates further enhances the fund offering Investors Group provides to clients,” says John Wiltshire, senior vp of product and financial planning for Investors Group.

Subject to regulatory approval, the funds are expected to be available for purchase early this summer.
