TORONTO (January 19, 2021) – CI Global Asset Management (“CI GAM”) today announced the launch of the ETF US$ Hedged Series of CI Munro Alternative Global Growth Fund, adding to the CI Liquid Alternatives™ lineup of dual-class funds available in both ETF and mutual fund series. This new series begins trading today on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”) under the ticker symbol CMAG.U.

CI Munro Alternative Global Growth Fund seeks to generate risk-adjusted, absolute returns through exposure to global growth equities over the medium to long term, while maintaining a capital preservation mindset.
