CALGARY, Alberta, April 10, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Canoe Financial LP (“Canoe Financial”) today announced it will be holding securityholder meetings and reducing management fees for certain funds. 
Securityholder MeetingsAs announced on April 9, 2020, Canoe Financial has reached an agreement with Fiera Capital Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Fiera Investments LP (“Fiera Investments”) to acquire the right to manage Fiera Investments’ retail mutual funds. The transaction is expected to close on or about the end of the second quarter of 2020, subject to receipt of all necessary and securityholder approvals.Upon completion of the proposed transaction and subject to receipt of all necessary approvals, Canoe Financial proposes to merge certain of the Fiera Investments mutual funds (“Fiera Terminating Funds”) into certain Canoe mutual funds (“Canoe Continuing Funds”), as set forth below.Due to the fact that the total assets of the Fiera Terminating Funds are collectively larger than the assets of each Canoe Continuing Fund into which the Fiera Terminating Funds are merging, Canoe Financial is calling a meeting of securityholders of each of the Canoe Continuing Funds to vote on the applicable merger.Approval from securityholders of each Canoe Continuing Fund will be sought at special meetings to be held in the second quarter of 2020. Details about the mergers will be contained in the meeting materials. Management Fee ReductionsEffective May 1, 2020, the management fee for Series A of Canoe Bond Advantage Portfolio Class will be reduced from 1.35% to 1.25%, the management fee for Series F of Canoe Bond Advantage Portfolio Class will be reduced from 0.85% to 0.70%, the management fee for Series A of Canoe Defensive International Equity Fund will be reduced from 1.90% to 1.85% and the management fee for Series F of Canoe Global Income Fund will be reduced from 0.99% to 0.70%.About Canoe Financial
