Yorkville Introduces EAFE QVR Enhanced Protection Equity Class

Yorkville Asset Management is pleased to announce the launch of the EAFE QVR Enhanced Protection Equity Class - a new fund designed to provide investors access to select investment opportunities in Europe, Australia, Asia and the Far East. Yorkville, a pioneer in utilizing Quality, Value and Risk metrics in its investment approach strongly advocates that Canadian investors consider prudently diversifying into these markets. Utilizing a value investment approach, the Fund is well positioned to immediately build upon the opportunities the Manager sees in these markets.

“International (EAFE) equities are great diversifiers for balanced mandates and for those seeking exposure to Europe, and developed Asian economies, like Singapore, Hong Kong and Japan. They represent 30% of the world large cap market and have historically outperformed Canadian equities.” Hussein Amad President and CEO of Yorkville Asset Management.

In addition to Mr. Amad, acting as the Fund’s lead Portfolio Manager, Yorkville has brought onboard additional talent with Polina Markova joining as Associate Portfolio Manager. Ms. Markova holds an Honours Bachelor of Administrative Studies degree from York University and is a CFA charterholder. She previously worked at a boutique investment firm, managing investments and constructing portfolios for high-net-worth individuals.

The Fund is available dealers as both an A and F Series

For additional information please contact Polina Markova at 416-504-0411 or visit www.yorkvilleasset.com for additional information and regulatory documents.

This is Yorkville’s 4^th consecutive year sponsoring the foundation gala, dating back to 2013, when Yorkville became the VIP Reception Sponsor for Trillium’s Laugh Out Loud event. This year’s event was hosted by acclaimed hometown comedian Russell Peters and Jessica Holmes who managed to lead a successful night of laughter and music. The event raised almost $950,000 for the Mental Health Program at Trillium Health Partners. To date, the Laugh Out Loud event has raised over $7.5 million in support of Trillium Health Partners Foundation.
