Standard & Poor's Canadian Income Fund Stability Ratings provide equally important information to investors who are considering income funds as a vehicle for investment diversification, or as a source of cash flow rather than equity appreciation.
Investors can use Canadian Income Fund Stability Ratings to:
Obtain a risk-adjusted view of income investments
Assess the relative stability of different income funds
Gain independent, third-party insight into a fund's cash flow variability and sustainability
Supplement their yield analysis with analysis of cash flow stability
Compare distribution-based returns against their associated risks
