The four funds are: Investors Summa Fund; Investors Global Science & Technology Fund; Investors U.S. Large Cap Growth Fund (formerly Investors Special Fund); and Investors Global e.Commerce Fund.

Effectively immediately, the I.G. Investment Management (IGIM) team will assume responsibility for overseeing four equity funds. The funds were previously managed by Geoff Barth and Allan Brown, who have left to pursue other opportunities.

“Our team approach to portfolio management enables us to continue the same investment style and philosophy for these four funds,” said Scott Penman, president and managing partner, IGIM. “The overall strength of our team and their familiarity with the stocks held in these portfolios will ensure continuity.”

The IGIM team is comprised of 30 investment professionals
