The Dixon Mitchell US Equity Portfolio invests in non-Canadian stocks listed on major US exchanges. It targets high quality businesses with one or more of the following characteristics: a strong competitive position, recognized industry leadership, dominance in a specific niche, or a uniquely effective management team and philosophy. Once a business that meets these criteria has been identified, extensive fundamental analysis is undertaken to determine whether it is a candidate for the portfolio. This mandate is available in both separately managed and pooled formats.

The Dixon Mitchell Small Cap Fund invests in Canadian stocks with market capitalizations of $2 billion or below. Investment decisions within this portfolio are generated through the same investment process that DM follows for its other equity mandates, with additional time devoted to executive interviews and site visits. The fund targets companies in the growth phase of their life cycle, with internal capital typically devoted to organic growth or M&A activity, rather than shareholder distribution. This mandate is available in pooled form only.
