On the one-year anniversary of the launch of the Capstone Canadian Equity Fund, the no-load Capstone mutual fund family has expanded its prospectus filing to include all the provinces of Canada, except Quebec.

The Capstone family of funds, launched in 1980, has expanded from Ontario, B.C., and Alberta to provide greater access to Canadians seeking the added value and cost advantages of investing without commissions or loads.

The names on all funds have also been updated to reflect current terminology, and in the case of the Capstone Global Equity Fund (formerly The Capstone International Trust), the change was to better reflect the global equity benchmark the fund is measured against.

Other changes are as follows; Capstone Cash Management Fund (formerly The Capstone Cash Management Fund), Capstone Balanced Fund (formerly The Capstone Balanced Trust), and Capstone Canadian Equity Fund (formerly The Capstone Canadian Equity Trust).

Based in Toronto, the Capstone Funds are managed by Morgan Meighen Associates Ltd., one of the country’s oldest independent investment managers. The sub-advisor to the funds is Scarthingmoor Asset Management Inc.

The funds are no-load and are RRSP and RRIF eligible (with units of the Capstone Global Equity Fund considered to be foreign property). The funds can be bought in Ontario directly from Capstone Consultants Ltd., the principal sales agent for the Funds, or through major brokerages and banks across the country (excluding Quebec).
