The fundamental investment objective of the Global Equity Fund is to seek long-term capital appreciation.

To achieve this objective the fund will generally allocate its assets to other funds managed and advised by Dimensional that invest in Canadian, US, and international equity securities (including exposure to developed and emerging markets), and real estate securities.

The underlying funds invest in a broad and diverse group of securities with an increased exposure to small issuers and value securities. Dimensional typically determines size based upon market capitalization. In assessing value, Dimensional may consider factors such as a company's shares having a high book value in relation to its market value, and price-to-cash-flow or price-to-earnings ratios. The criteria used for assessing value may change from time to time.

Where practical, Dimensional may seek to increase the after-tax value of an investment by managing the Fund in a manner that may defer the realization of net capital gains and reduce dividend income.
