Return on Innovation (ROI) Capital Ltd. today announced the name change of ROI Sceptre Monthly Income Fund to ROI Sceptre Canadian Pension Fund.

The name change reflects more accurately the mandate and objective of the fund. ROI Sceptre Canadian Pension Fund mirrors the asset mix and objectives of a typical pension fund portfolio by offering underlying funds managed by Sceptre Investment Counsel, one of the most respected pension plan managers in Canada, plus ROI mezzanine financing, an asset class that until recently has been unavailable to the retail investor, despite its use in most pension funds in Canada and around the world.

ROI specializes in mezzanine financing, which involves lending money to established Canadian companies. As ROI loans are uncorrelated to the capital markets, this form of investing helps to stabilize a client portfolio. ROI Capital also takes security on these loans therefore reducing the risk of these investments even further. This investment style ensures ROI delivers on its objective of capital preservation, income and growth.

In addition to the name change of the fund, distribution changes were also made to ROI Sceptre Canadian Pension Fund Series A, F and O units. In response to advisor feedback, these series of units will no longer pay monthly distributions, but rather annual distributions every December. Fixed, monthly distributions are available through other series of the Fund. All changes are effective November 10, 2006.
