AGF Trust Co. today broadened access to the futures and commodities market for retail investors with the launch of AGF Trust Managed Futures Notes Series I.
The notes offer investors exposure to the managed futures and commodities market, a proven performer in all market conditions, with the additional benefit of principal protection and a minimum guaranteed return.
“AGF Trust’s Managed Futures Notes give investors the opportunity to achieve positive returns in declining markets, as well as in rising ones, with the comfort that they won’t lose money,” said Mario Causarano, president and chief operating officer, AGF Trust Co. “The notes also offer true diversification, because managed futures and commodities are not correlated to stocks and bonds.”
AGF Trust Managed Futures Notes Series I are eight-year notes with a minimum guaranteed return of eight per cent at maturity. In addition, they allow investors to participate in the total return of a dedicated managed futures pool.
AGF Trust Managed Futures Notes Series I are available for sale from February 12, 2003 to March 31, 2003. They are RSP eligible and have a minimum investment of $5,000.
In addition, commencing June 30, 2005, the notes can be redeemed on a semi-annual basis prior to maturity for the market value of the note at the time of redemption, subject to certain restrictions.
