AIM Funds Management Inc. is proposing an amendment to the investment objectives for AIM Global Natural Resources Class.

The changes would include an amendment to the fund’s current investment objectives and a name change to AIM Global Energy Class. This amendment, as well as other items pertaining to AIM Global Fund Inc. and AIM Canada Fund Inc., will be voted on by shareholders at the annual and special meetings for shareholders of AIM Global Fund Inc. and AIM Canada Fund Inc. taking place on June 11 at the Sheraton Centre Hotel in Toronto.

According to AIM, the amendment to the fund’s investment objectives will allow the fund to focus on energy and energy-related companies. AIM says increased worldwide energy consumption has contributed to significant growth for energy companies. The change in investment objectives will allow the fund to focus on companies that operate in these areas of the energy market where growth opportunities exist.

A proxy material package outlining the terms of the proposed changes will be mailed to shareholders of AIM Global Natural Resources Class in May. The changes are subject to shareholder approval.
