Toronto-based CI Investments Inc. has appointed Montreal-based Fiera Capital Corp. to subadvise CI’s lineup of G5|20 and G5|20i products, which are a family of guaranteed cash flow funds.

The change occurs as the team of portfolio managers responsible for the funds’ risk-management overlay strategy has moved to Fiera from Montreal-based HR Strategies Inc., the lineup’s previous subadvisor.

Alexandre Hocquard, co-leader of research and quantitative solutions and senior portfolio manager at Fiera, and Nicolas Papageorgiou, co-leader of research and quantitative solutions at Fiera, lead the team. These managers have been responsible for the risk-management overlay strategy of these particular funds since November 2014.

Fiera’s appointment as subadvisor applies to all products within the G5|20 lineup, which distributes cash flow after a five-year accumulation period, and the G5|20i lineup, which distributes cash flow immediately. The change in subadvisor was effective Nov. 1.
