Dear fellow investors,
We understand that the last few weeks have been extremely trying. The virus has created a difficult situation for the whole world and the uncertainty has caused significant declines in global stock markets. This has caused losses in your Portfolio. Although we deem the declines to be temporary in nature, we understand that drawdowns like this are difficult to experience.

Furthermore, we stand shoulder-to-shoulder with you in the Portfolios – the internal EdgePoint partners are collectively the second largest owner of the same Portfolios you own.
