Financial instruments risk

The Fund invests in the BMO Income ETF Portfolio, (“underlying fund”). The investment objective of the underlying fund is to preserve the capital invested by investing primarily in exchange traded funds that invest in fixed income securities with a lesser exposure to exchange traded funds that invest in Canadian, U.S. and international equity securities. The underlying fund may also invest in other mutual funds or invest directly in individual fixed income or equity securities and cash or cash equivalents.

Currency risk

The Fund's exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to currency risk is summarized in the tables below. Amounts shown are based on the carrying value of monetary and non-monetary assets (including derivatives and the underlying principle (notional) amount of forward currency contracts, if any).

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, if the Canadian dollar had strengthened or weakened by 5% in relation to all foreign currencies, respectively, with all other variables held constant, the Net Assets of the Fund could possibly have decreased or increased, respectively, by approximately $11 (December 31, 2019 — $9). In practice, actual results may differ from this sensitivity analysis and the difference could be material.

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the underlying fund was also exposed, through its investment in exchange traded funds, to indirect currency risk to the extent that the exchange traded funds invested in financial instruments that were denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the underlying fund.

Interest rate risk

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Fund did not have significant exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to interest rate risk.

Other market risk

The Fund has a significant indirect exposure to other market risk arising from its investment in the underlying fund, which invests in equity securities. Using historical correlation between the Fund's return and the return of its benchmark, if the benchmark, composed of 40% FTSE Canada Universe Bond Index, 20% S&P/TSX Composite Total Return Index and 40% MSCI World Index (C$), had increased or decreased by 10%, with all other variables held constant, the Net Assets of the Fund would have increased or decreased, respectively, by $2,830 (December 31, 2019 — $2,272). Historical correlation may not be representative of future correlation, and accordingly, actual results may differ and the difference could be material.

Credit risk

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Fund did not have significant exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to credit risk.

Fair value hierarchy

The Fund classifies its financial instruments into three levels based on the inputs used to value the financial instruments. Level 1 securities are valued based on the quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2 securities are valued based on significant observable market inputs, such as quoted prices from similar securities and quoted prices in inactive markets or based on observable inputs to models.

Level 3 securities are valued based on significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Company's determination of assumptions that market participants might reasonably use in valuing the securities.

(1) This information is provided as at June 30 or December 31 of the period shown, as applicable.

(2) The management expense ratio of a particular class is calculated based on all expenses allocated to the class, as applicable, including all taxes and interest expenses but excluding brokerage commissions and other portfolio transaction costs, divided by the average daily net asset value of that class, annualized.

(3) The Fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the Fund's portfolio manager manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the Fund buying and selling all of the securities in its portfolio once in the course of the year. The higher a fund's portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the Fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable capital gains in the year. There is not necessarily a relationship between a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund.

(4) The information shown in this column is for the period beginning June 21, 2016 (the class' inception date) and ending December 31, 2016.

(5) The information shown in this column is for the period beginning May 14, 2018 (the class' inception date) and ending December 31, 2018.

† Effective May 11,, 2020, the management fee rate was reduced from 1.26% to 1.22%.

Financial instruments risk

The Fund invests in the BMO Balanced ETF Portfolio, (“underlying fund”). The investment objective of the underlying fund is to provide a balanced portfolio by investing primarily in exchange traded funds that invest in Canadian, U.S. and international fixed income and equity securities. The underlying fund may also invest in other mutual funds or invest directly in individual fixed income and equity securities and cash or cash equivalents.

Currency risk

The Fund's exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to currency risk is summarized in the tables below. Amounts shown are based on the carrying value of monetary and non-monetary assets (including derivatives and the underlying principle (notional) amount of forward currency contracts, if any).

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, if the Canadian dollar had strengthened or weakened by 5% in relation to all foreign currencies, respectively, with all  other variables held constant, the Net Assets of the Fund could possibly have decreased or increased, respectively, by approximately $114 (December 31, 2019 — $22). In practice, actual results may differ from this sensitivity analysis and the difference could be material.

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the underlying fund was also exposed, through its investment in exchange traded funds, to indirect currency risk to the extent that the exchange traded funds invested in financial instruments that were denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the underlying fund.

Interest rate risk

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Fund did not have significant exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to interest rate risk.

Other market risk

The Fund has a significant indirect exposure to other market risk arising from its investment in the underlying fund, which invests in equity securities. Using historical correlation between the Fund's return and the return of its benchmark, if the benchmark, composed of 40% FTSE Canada Universe Bond Index, 20% S&P/TSX Composite

Total Return Index and 40% MSCI World Index (C$), had increased or decreased by 10%, with all other variables held constant, the Net Assets of the Fund would have increased or decreased, respectively, by $19,023 (December 31, 2019 — $17,916). Historical correlation may not be representative of future correlation, and accordingly, actual results may differ and the difference could be material.

Credit risk

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Fund did not have significant exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to credit risk.

Fair value hierarchy

The Fund classifies its financial instruments into three levels based on the inputs used to value the financial instruments. Level 1 securities are valued based on the quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2 securities are valued based on significant observable market inputs, such as quoted prices from similar securities and quoted prices in inactive markets or based on observable inputs to models.

Level 3 securities are valued based on significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Company's determination of assumptions that market participants might reasonably use in valuing the securities.

(1) This information is provided as at June 30 or December 31 of the period shown, as applicable.

(2) The management expense ratio of a particular class is calculated based on all expenses allocated to the class, as applicable, including all taxes and interest expenses but excluding brokerage commissions and other portfolio transaction costs, divided by the average daily net asset value of that class, annualized.

(3) The Fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the Fund's portfolio manager manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the Fund buying and selling all of the securities in its portfolio once in the course of the year. The higher a fund's portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the Fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable capital gains in the year. There is not necessarily a relationship between a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund.

(4) The information shown in this column is for the period beginning June 21, 2016 (the class' inception date) and ending December 31, 2016.

(5) The information shown in this column is for the period beginning January 9, 2017 (the class' inception date) and ending December 31, 2017.

(6) The information shown in this column is for the period beginning May 14, 2018 (the class' inception date) and ending December 31, 2018.

† Effective May 11, 2020, the management fee rate was reduced from 1.27% to 1.22%.

Financial instruments risk

The Fund invests in the BMO Growth ETF Portfolio (“underlying fund”). The investment objective of the underlying fund is to provide long-term growth by investing primarily in exchange traded funds that invest in Canadian, U.S. and international equity securities and, to a lesser extent, fixed income securities. The underlying fund may also invest in other mutual funds or invest directly in individual fixed income and equity securities and cash or cash equivalents.

Currency risk

The Fund's exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to currency risk is summarized in the tables below. Amounts shown are based on the carrying value of monetary and non-monetary assets (including derivatives and the underlying principle (notional) amount of forward currency contracts, if any).

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, if the Canadian dollar had strengthened or weakened by 5% in relation to all foreign currencies, respectively, with all other variables held constant, the Net Assets of the Fund could possibly have decreased or increased, respectively, by approximately $24 (December 31, 2019 — $29). In practice, actual results may differ from this sensitivity analysis and the difference could be material.

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the underlying fund was also exposed, through its investment in exchange traded funds, to indirect currency risk to the extent that the exchange traded funds invested in financial instruments that were denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the underlying fund.

Interest rate risk

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Fund did not have significant exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to interest rate risk.

Other market risk

The Fund has a significant indirect exposure to other market risk arising from its investment in the underlying fund, which invests in equity securities. Using historical correlation between the Fund's return and the return of its benchmark, if the benchmark, composed of 20% FTSE Canada Universe Bond Index, 25% S&P/TSX Composite Total Return Index and 55% MSCI World Index (C$), had increased or decreased by 10%, with all other variables held constant, the Net Assets of the Fund would have increased or decreased, respectively, by $2,937 (December 31, 2019 — $2,786). Historical correlation may not be representative of future correlation, and accordingly, actual results may differ and the difference could be material.

Credit risk

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Fund did not have significant exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to credit risk.

Fair value hierarchy

The Fund classifies its financial instruments into three levels based on the inputs used to value the financial instruments. Level 1 securities are valued based on the quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2 securities are valued based on significant observable market inputs, such as quoted prices from similar securities and quoted prices in inactive markets or based on observable inputs to models.

Level 3 securities are valued based on significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Company's determination of assumptions that market participants might reasonably use in valuing the securities.

(1) This information is provided as at June 30 or December 31 of the period shown, as applicable.

(2) The management expense ratio of a particular class is calculated based on all expenses allocated to the class, as applicable, including all taxes and interest expenses but excluding brokerage commissions and other portfolio transaction costs, divided by the average daily net asset value of that class, annualized.

(3) The Fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the Fund's portfolio manager manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the Fund buying and selling all of the securities in its portfolio once in the course of the year. The higher a fund's portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the Fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable capital gains in the year. There is not necessarily a relationship between a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund.

(4) The information shown in this column is for the period beginning June 21, 2016 (the class' inception date) and ending December 31, 2016.

(5) The information shown in this column is for the period beginning May 14, 2018 (the class' inception date) and ending December 31, 2018.

† Effective May 11, 2020, the management fee rate was reduced from 1.27% to 1.18%.

Financial instruments risk

The Fund invests in the BMO Equity Growth ETF Portfolio, (“underlying fund”). The investment objective of the underlying fund is to provide long-term growth by investing primarily in exchange traded funds that invest in Canadian, U.S. and international equity securities. The underlying fund may also invest in other mutual funds or invest directly in individual equity securities and cash or cash equivalents.

Currency risk

The Fund's exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to currency risk is summarized in the tables below. Amounts shown are based on the carrying value of monetary and non-monetary assets (including derivatives and the underlying principle (notional) amount of forward currency contracts, if any).

39 BMO Guaranteed Investment Funds

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, if the Canadian dollar had strengthened or weakened by 5% in relation to all foreign currencies, respectively, with all other variables held constant, the Net Assets of the Fund could possibly have decreased or increased, respectively, by approximately $16 (December 31, 2019 — $5). In practice, actual results may differ from this sensitivity analysis and the difference could be material.

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the underlying fund was also exposed, through its investment in exchange traded funds, to indirect currency risk to the extent that the exchange traded funds invested in financial instruments that were denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the underlying fund.

Interest rate risk

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Fund did not have significant exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to interest rate risk.

Other market risk

The Fund has a significant indirect exposure to other market risk arising from its investment in the underlying fund, which invests in equity securities. Using historical correlation between the Fund's return and the return of its benchmark, if the benchmark, composed of 25% S&P/TSX Composite Total Return Index and 75% MSCI World Index (C$), had increased or decreased by 10%, with all other variables held constant, the Net Assets of the Fund would have increased or decreased, respectively, by $2,147 (December 31, 2019 — $1,961). Historical correlation may not be representative of future correlation, and accordingly, actual results may differ and the difference could be material.

Credit risk

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Fund did not have significant exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to credit risk.

Fair value hierarchy

The Fund classifies its financial instruments into three levels based on the inputs used to value the financial instruments. Level 1 securities are valued based on the quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2 securities are valued based on significant observable market inputs, such as quoted prices from similar securities and quoted prices in inactive markets or based on observable inputs to models.

Level 3 securities are valued based on significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Company's determination of assumptions that market participants might reasonably use in valuing the securities.

(1) This information is provided as at June 30 or December 31 of the period shown, as applicable.

(2) The management expense ratio of a particular class is calculated based on all expenses allocated to the class, as applicable, including all taxes and interest expenses but excluding brokerage commissions and other portfolio transaction costs, divided by the average daily net asset value of that class, annualized.

(3) The Fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the Fund's portfolio manager manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the Fund buying and selling all of the securities in its portfolio once in the course of the year. The higher a fund's portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the Fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable capital gains in the year. There is not necessarily a relationship between a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund. For the financial period-ended December 31, 2017, no purchases or sales of portfolio securities were made by the fund. As a result the portfolio turnover rate for these periods was zero.

(4) The information shown in this column is for the period beginning June 21, 2016 (the class' inception date) and ending December 31, 2016.

(5) The information shown in this column is for the period beginning May 14, 2018 (the class' inception date) and ending December 31, 2018.

† Effective May 11, 2020, the management fee rate was reduced from 1.32% to 1.23%.

Financial instruments risk

The Fund invests in the BMO Fixed Income ETF Portfolio (“underlying fund”). The investment objective of the underlying fund is to preserve the capital invested by investing primarily in exchange traded funds that invest in Canadian, U.S. and international fixed income securities. The underlying fund may also invest in other mutual funds or invest directly in individual fixed income securities and cash or cash equivalents.

Financial instruments risk of the underlying fund

The Fund is indirectly exposed to currency risk, interest rate risk, other market risk and credit risk through its investment in the underlying fund to the extent the underlying fund was exposed to these risks.

Fair value hierarchy

The Fund classifies its financial instruments into three levels based on the inputs used to value the financial instruments. Level 1 securities are valued based on the quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2 securities are valued based on significant observable market inputs, such as quoted prices from similar securities and quoted prices in inactive markets or based on observable inputs to models.

Level 3 securities are valued based on significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Company's determination of assumptions that market participants might reasonably use in valuing the securities.

(1) This information is provided as at June 30 or December 31 of the period shown, as applicable.

(2) The management expense ratio of a particular class is calculated based on all expenses allocated to the class, as applicable, including all taxes and interest expenses but excluding brokerage commissions and other portfolio transaction costs, divided by the average daily net asset value of that class, annualized.

(3) The Fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the Fund's portfolio manager manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the Fund buying and selling all of the securities in its portfolio once in the course of the year. The higher a fund's portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the Fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable capital gains in the year. There is not necessarily a relationship between a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund.

(4) The information shown in this column is for the period beginning June 21, 2016 (the class' inception date) and ending December 31, 2016.

(5) The information shown in this column is for the period beginning May 14, 2018 (the class' inception date) and ending December 31, 2018.

† Effective May 11, 2020, the management fee rate was reduced from 1.21% to 1.16%.

Financial instruments risk

The Fund invests in the BMO Conservative ETF Portfolio, (“underlying fund”). The investment objective of the underlying fund is to preserve the capital invested and, to a lesser extent, provide some potential for growth by investing primarily in exchange traded funds that invest in Canadian, U.S. and international fixed income and equity securities. The underlying fund may also invest in other mutual funds or invest directly in individual fixed income and equity securities and cash or cash equivalents.

Currency risk

The Fund's exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to currency risk is summarized in the tables below. Amounts shown are based on the carrying value of monetary and non-monetary assets (including derivatives and the underlying principle (notional) amount of forward currency contracts, if any).

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, if the Canadian dollar had strengthened or weakened by 5% in relation to all foreign currencies, respectively, with all  other variables held constant, the Net Assets of the Fund could possibly have decreased or increased, respectively,  by approximately $16  (December 31, 2019  — $5). In practice, actual results may differ from this sensitivity analysis and the difference could be material.

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the underlying fund was also exposed, through its investment in exchange traded funds, to indirect currency risk to the extent that the exchange traded funds invested in financial instruments that were denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the underlying fund.

Interest rate risk

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Fund did not have significant exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to interest rate risk.

Other market risk

The Fund has a significant indirect exposure to other market risk arising from its investment in the underlying fund, which invests in equity securities. Using historical correlation between the Fund's return and the return of its benchmark, if the benchmark, composed of 40% FTSE Canada Universe Bond Index, 20% S&P/TSX Composite

Total Return Index and 40% MSCI World Index (C$), had increased or decreased by 10%, with all other variables held constant, the Net Assets of the Fund would have increased or decreased, respectively, by $7,132 (December 31, 2019 — $6,130). Historical correlation may not be representative of future correlation, and accordingly, actual results may differ and the difference could be material.

Credit risk

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Fund did not have significant exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to credit risk.

Fair value hierarchy

The Fund classifies its financial instruments into three levels based on the inputs used to value the financial instruments. Level 1 securities are valued based on the quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2 securities are valued based on significant observable market inputs, such as quoted prices from similar securities and quoted prices in inactive markets or based on observable inputs to models.

Level 3 securities are valued based on significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Company's determination of assumptions that market participants might reasonably use in valuing the securities.

(1) This information is provided as at June 30 or December 31 of the period shown, as applicable.

(2) The management expense ratio of a particular class is calculated based on all expenses allocated to the class, as applicable, including all taxes and interest expenses but excluding brokerage commissions and other portfolio transaction costs, divided by the average daily net asset value of that class, annualized.

(3) The Fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the Fund's portfolio manager manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the Fund buying and selling all of the securities in its portfolio once in the course of the year. The higher a fund's portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the Fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable capital gains in the year. There is not necessarily a relationship between a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund.

(4) The information shown in this column is for the period beginning June 21, 2016 (the class' inception date) and ending December 31, 2016.

(5) The information shown in this column is for the period beginning January 9, 2017 (the class' inception date) and ending December 31, 2017.

(6) The information shown in this column is for the period beginning May 14, 2018 (the class' inception date) and ending December 31, 2018.

† Effective May 11, 2020, the management fee rate was reduced from 1.26% to 1.22%.

Financial instruments risk

The Fund’s objective is to achieve long term capital growth and income. The Fund invests primarily in exchange traded funds that seek to provide broad exposure to publicly listed U.S. companies balanced with high quality Canadian fixed income securities or cash equivalents.

Financial instruments risk of the underlying funds

The Fund is indirectly exposed to currency risk, interest rate risk, other market risk and credit risk through its investment in the underlying funds to the extent the underlying funds were exposed to these risks.

Fair value hierarchy

The Fund classifies its financial instruments into three levels based on the inputs used to value the financial instruments. Level 1 securities are valued based on the quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2 securities are valued based on significant observable market inputs, such as quoted prices from similar securities and quoted prices in inactive markets or based on observable inputs to models.

Level 3 securities are valued based on significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Company's determination of assumptions that market participants might reasonably use in valuing the securities.

(1) This information is provided as at June 30 or December 31 of the period shown, as applicable.

(2) The management expense ratio of a particular class is calculated based on all expenses allocated to the class, as applicable, including all taxes and interest expenses but excluding brokerage commissions and other portfolio transaction costs, divided by the average daily net asset value of that class, annualized.

(3) The Fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the Fund's portfolio manager manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the Fund buying and selling all of the securities in its portfolio once in the course of the year. The higher a fund's portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the Fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable capital gains in the year. There is not necessarily a relationship between a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund.

(4) The information shown in this column is for the period beginning May 14, 2018 (the class' inception date) and ending December 31, 2018.

† Effective May 1, 2015, the management fee rate was reduced from 1.55% to 1.50%.†† Effective May 1, 2015, the management fee rate was reduced from 1.20% to 1.15%.

(1) This information is provided as at June 30 or December 31 of the period shown, as applicable.

(3) The Fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the Fund's portfolio manager manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the Fund buying and selling all of the securities in its portfolio once in the course of the year. The higher a fund's portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the Fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable capital gains in the year. There is not necessarily a relationship between a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund.

(4) The information shown in this column is for the period beginning May 14, 2018 (the class' inception date) and ending December 31, 2018.

† Effective May 1, 2015, the management fee rate was reduced from 1.55% to 1.50%.†† Effective May 1, 2015, the management fee rate was reduced from 1.20% to 1.15%.

(1) This information is provided as at June 30 or December 31 of the period shown, as applicable.

(2) The management expense ratio of a particular class is calculated based on all expenses allocated to the class, as applicable, including all taxes and interest expenses but excluding brokerage commissions and other portfolio transaction costs, divided by the average daily net asset value of that class, annualized.

(3) The Fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the Fund's portfolio manager manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the Fund buying and selling all of the securities in its portfolio once in the course of the year. The higher a fund's portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the Fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable capital gains in the year. There is not necessarily a relationship between a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund.

(4) The information shown in this column is for the period beginning May 14, 2018 (the class' inception date) and ending December 31, 2018.

Financial instruments risk

The Fund invests in the BMO Low Volatility US Equity ETF, (“underlying fund”). The investment objective of the underlying fund is to provide exposure to the performance of a portfolio of U.S. stocks with potential for long-term capital growth. The securities of the underlying fund will be selected from the large capitalization of U.S. equity universe. The securities that have the lowest sensitivity to market movements (beta) will be selected for the portfolio and they will be weighted so that a higher allocation is given to securities with lower betas, although any investment in a single issuer will be made only in accordance with applicable Canadian securities legislation.

Currency risk

The Fund's exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to currency risk is summarized in the tables below. Amounts shown are based on the carrying value of monetary and non-monetary assets (including derivatives and the underlying principle (notional) amount of forward currency contracts, if any).

respectively, by approximately $2,111 (December 31, 2019 — $1,738). In practice, actual results may differ from this sensitivity analysis and the difference could be material.

Interest rate risk

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Fund did not have significant exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to interest rate risk.

Other market risk

The Fund has a significant indirect exposure to other market risk arising from its investment in the underlying fund, which invests in equity securities. Using historical correlation between the Fund's return and the return of its benchmark, if the benchmark, S&P 500 Index (CAD), had increased or decreased by 10%, with all other variables held constant, the Net Assets of the Fund would have increased or decreased, respectively, by $3,490 (December 31, 2019 — $2,249). Historical correlation may not be representative of future correlation, and accordingly, actual results may differ and the difference could be material.

Credit risk

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Fund did not have significant exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to credit risk.

Fair value hierarchy

The Fund classifies its financial instruments into three levels based on the inputs used to value the financial instruments. Level 1 securities are valued based on the quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2 securities are valued based on significant observable market inputs, such as quoted prices from similar securities and quoted prices in inactive markets or based on observable inputs to models.

Level 3 securities are valued based on significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Company's determination of assumptions that market participants might reasonably use in valuing the securities.

(1) This information is provided as at June 30 or December 31 of the period shown, as applicable.

(2) The management expense ratio of a particular class is calculated based on all expenses allocated to the class, as applicable, including all taxes and interest expenses but excluding brokerage commissions and other portfolio transaction costs, divided by the average daily net asset value of that class, annualized.

(3) The Fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the Fund's portfolio manager manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the Fund buying and selling all of the securities in its portfolio once in the course of the year. The higher a fund's portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the Fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable capital gains in the year. There is not necessarily a relationship between a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund.

(4) The information shown in this column is for the period beginning June 21, 2016 (the class' inception date) and ending December 31, 2016.

(5) The information shown in this column is for the period beginning May 14, 2018 (the class' inception date) and ending December 31, 2018.

† Effective May 11, 2020, the management fee rate was reduced from 1.32% to 1.23%.

Financial instruments risk

The Fund’s objective is to achieve long term capital growth and monthly income. The Fund invests primarily in exchange traded funds that invest in Canadian and U.S. income-generating securities: dividend-paying common stocks, preferred shares, income trusts, as well as high quality Canadian fixed income securities or cash equivalents.

Financial instruments risk of the underlying funds

The Fund is indirectly exposed to currency risk, interest rate risk, other market risk and credit risk through its investments in the underlying funds to the extent the underlying funds were exposed to these risks.

Fair value hierarchy

The Fund classifies its financial instruments into three levels based on the inputs used to value the financial instruments. Level 1 securities are valued based on the quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2 securities are valued based on significant observable market inputs, such as quoted prices from similar securities and quoted prices in inactive markets or based on observable inputs to models.

Level 3 securities are valued based on significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Company's determination of assumptions that market participants might reasonably use in valuing the securities.

(1) This information is provided as at June 30 or December 31 of the period shown, as applicable.

(2) The management expense ratio of a particular class is calculated based on all expenses allocated to the class, as applicable, including all taxes and interest expenses but excluding brokerage commissions and other portfolio transaction costs, divided by the average daily net asset value of that class, annualized.

(3) The Fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the Fund's portfolio manager manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the Fund buying and selling all of the securities in its portfolio once in the course of the year. The higher a fund's portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the Fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable capital gains in the year. There is not necessarily a relationship between a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund.

(4) The information shown in this column is for the period beginning May 14, 2018 (the class' inception date) and ending December 31, 2018.

Financial instruments risk

The Fund invests in the BMO Low Volatility Canadian Equity ETF (“underlying fund”). The investment objective of the underlying fund is to provide exposure to the performance of a portfolio of Canadian equities with the potential for long-term capital growth. The securities of the underlying fund will be selected from the largest and most liquid securities in Canada. The securities that have the lowest sensitivity to market movement (beta) will be selected for the underlying fund portfolio and it will be weighted so that a higher allocation is given to securities with lower one year beta, although any investment in a single issuer will be made only in accordance with applicable Canadian security legislation.

Currency risk

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Fund did not have significant exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to currency risk as the underlying fund invested primarily in Canadian securities.

Interest rate risk

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Fund did not have significant exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to interest rate risk.

Other market risk

The Fund has a significant indirect exposure to other market risk arising from its investment in the underlying fund, which invests in equity securities. Using historical correlation between the Fund's return and the return of its benchmark, if the benchmark, S&P/TSX Capped Composite Index, had increased or decreased by 10%, with all other variables held constant, the Net Assets of the Fund would have increased or decreased, respectively, by $2,428 (December 31, 2019 — $1,940). Historical correlation may not be representative of future correlation, and accordingly, actual results may differ and the difference could be material.

Credit risk

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Fund did not have significant exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to credit risk.

Fair value hierarchy

The Fund classifies its financial instruments into three levels based on the inputs used to value the financial instruments. Level 1 securities are valued based on the quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2 securities are valued based on significant observable market inputs, such as quoted prices from similar securities and quoted prices in inactive markets or based on observable inputs to models.

Level 3 securities are valued based on significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Company's determination of assumptions that market participants might reasonably use in valuing the securities.

(1) This information is provided as at June 30 or December 31 of the period shown, as applicable.

(2) The management expense ratio of a particular class is calculated based on all expenses allocated to the class, as applicable, including all taxes and interest expenses but excluding brokerage commissions and other portfolio transaction costs, divided by the average daily net asset value of that class, annualized.

(3) The Fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the Fund's portfolio manager manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the Fund buying and selling all of the securities in its portfolio once in the course of the year. The higher a fund's portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the Fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable capital gains in the year. There is not necessarily a relationship between a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund.

(4) The information shown in this column is for the period beginning June 21, 2016 (the class' inception date) and ending December 31, 2016.

(5) The information shown in this column is for the period beginning May 14, 2018 (the class' inception date) and ending December 31, 2018.

† Effective May 11, 2020, the management fee rate was reduced from 1.37% to 1.28%.

Financial instruments risk

The Fund invests in the BMO Monthly Income Fund, (“underlying fund”). The investment objective of the underlying fund is to provide a fixed monthly distribution and to preserve the capital invested. The underlying fund invests primarily in Canadian fixed income securities with higher-than-average yields, issued by the federal government, provincial governments, government agencies and corporations as well as preferred and common shares, real estate investment trusts, royalty trusts and other high-yielding investments. To enhance the yield, the underlying fund may also invest in Canadian or foreign lower rated or unrated securities and derivative instruments with options, futures and forward contracts.

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, if the prevailing interest rates had been raised or lowered by 1%, assuming a parallel shift in the yield curve, with all other variables held constant, the Net Assets of the Fund could possibly have decreased or increased, respectively, by approximately $1,838 (December 31, 2019 — $1,702). The Fund's interest rate sensitivity was determined based on portfolio weighted duration. In practice, actual results may differ from this sensitivity analysis and the difference could be material.

Other market risk

The Fund has a significant indirect exposure to other market risk arising from its investment in the underlying fund, which invests in equity securities. Using historical correlation between the Fund's return and the return of its benchmark, if the benchmark, composed of 50% S&P/TSX Composite Total Return Index and 50% FTSE Canada Universe Bond Index, had increased or decreased by 10%, with all other variables held constant, the Net Assets of the Fund would have increased or decreased, respectively, by $5,549 (December 31, 2019 — $4,819). Historical correlation may not be representative of future correlation, and accordingly, actual results may differ and the difference could be material.

Credit risk

The Fund's exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to credit risk, grouped by credit ratings, is summarized in the following table:

Fair value hierarchy

The Fund classifies its financial instruments into three levels based on the inputs used to value the financial instruments. Level 1 securities are valued based on the quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2 securities are valued based on significant observable market inputs, such as quoted prices from similar securities and quoted prices in inactive markets or based on observable inputs to models.

Level 3 securities are valued based on significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Company's determination of assumptions that market participants might reasonably use in valuing the securities.

(1) This information is provided as at June 30 or December 31 of the period shown, as applicable.

(2) The management expense ratio of a particular class is calculated based on all expenses allocated to the class, as applicable, including all taxes and interest expenses but excluding brokerage commissions and other portfolio transaction costs, divided by the average daily net asset value of that class, annualized.

(3) The Fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the Fund's portfolio manager manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the Fund buying and selling all of the securities in its portfolio once in the course of the year. The higher a fund's portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the Fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable capital gains in the year. There is not necessarily a relationship between a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund.

(4) The information shown in this column is for the period beginning January 6, 2017 (the class' inception date) and ending December 31, 2017.

(5) The information shown in this column is for the period beginning May 14, 2018 (the class' inception date) and ending December 31, 2018.

† Effective May 11, 2020, the management fee rate was reduced from 1.46% to 1.37%.

Financial instruments risk

The Fund invests in the BMO Asset Allocation Fund, (“underlying fund”). The investment objective of the underlying fund is to provide a balance between income and growth in the value of the capital invested over the long term. The underlying fund invests in Canadian equities and fixed income securities.

Currency risk

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Fund did not have significant exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to currency risk as the underlying fund invested primarily in Canadian securities.

Interest rate risk

The Fund's exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to interest rate risk, by remaining term to maturity, is summarized in the following table:

Interest Rate Exposure as at

Number of yearsJune 30,

2020December 31,

2019

Less than one year 219 180One to three years 303 308Three to five years 447 490Five to ten years 841 1,058Greater than ten years 934 851Total 2,744 2,887

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, if the prevailing interest rates had been raised or lowered by 1%, assuming a parallel shift in the yield curve, with all other variables held constant, the Net Assets of the Fund could possibly have decreased or increased, respectively, by approximately $251 (December 31, 2019 — $235). The Fund's interest rate sensitivity was determined based on portfolio weighted duration. In practice, actual results may differ from this sensitivity analysis and the difference could be material.

Other market risk

The Fund has a significant indirect exposure to other market risk arising from its investment in the underlying fund, which invests in equity securities. Using historical correlation between the Fund's return and the return of its benchmark, if the benchmark, composed of 50% S&P/TSX Composite Total Return Index and 50% FTSE Canada Universe Bond Index, had increased or decreased by 10%, with all other variables held constant, the Net Assets of the Fund would have increased or decreased, respectively, by $744 (December 31, 2019 — $762). Historical correlation may not be representative of future correlation, and accordingly, actual results may differ and the difference could be material.

Credit risk

The Fund's exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to credit risk, grouped by credit ratings, is summarized in the following table:

Fair value hierarchy

The Fund classifies its financial instruments into three levels based on the inputs used to value the financial instruments. Level 1 securities are valued based on the quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2 securities are valued based on significant observable market inputs, such as quoted prices from similar securities and quoted prices in inactive markets or based on observable inputs to models.

Level 3 securities are valued based on significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Company's determination of assumptions that market participants might reasonably use in valuing the securities.

(1) This information is provided as at June 30 or December 31 of the period shown, as applicable.

(2) The management expense ratio of a particular class is calculated based on all expenses allocated to the class, as applicable, including all taxes and interest expenses but excluding brokerage commissions and other portfolio transaction costs, divided by the average daily net asset value of that class, annualized.

(3) The Fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the Fund's portfolio manager manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the Fund buying and selling all of the securities in its portfolio once in the course of the year. The higher a fund's portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the Fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable capital gains in the year.

Financial instruments risk

The Fund invests in the BMO Dividend Fund, (“underlying fund”). The investment objective of the underlying fund is to provide a high after-tax return, which includes dividend income and capital gains from growth in the capital invested. The underlying fund invests primarily in dividend-yielding common and preferred shares of established Canadian companies.

Currency risk

The Fund's exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to currency risk is summarized in the tables below. Amounts shown are based on the carrying value of monetary and non-monetary assets (including derivatives and the underlying principle (notional) amount of forward currency contracts, if any).

respectively, by approximately $93 (December 31, 2019 — $72). In practice, actual results may differ from this sensitivity analysis and the difference could be material.

Interest rate risk

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Fund did not have significant exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to interest rate risk.

Other market risk

The Fund has a significant indirect exposure to other market risk arising from its investment in the underlying fund, which invests in equity securities. Using historical correlation between the Fund's return and the return of its benchmark, if the benchmark, S&P/TSX Composite Total Return Index, had increased or decreased by 10%, with all other variables held constant, the Net Assets of the Fund would have increased or decreased, respectively, by $2,527 (December 31, 2019 — $1,978). Historical correlation may not be representative of future correlation, and accordingly, actual results may differ and the difference could be material.

Credit risk

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Fund did not have significant exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to credit risk.

Fair value hierarchy

The Fund classifies its financial instruments into three levels based on the inputs used to value the financial instruments. Level 1 securities are valued based on the quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2 securities are valued based on significant observable market inputs, such as quoted prices from similar securities and quoted prices in inactive markets or based on observable inputs to models.

Level 3 securities are valued based on significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Company's determination of assumptions that market participants might reasonably use in valuing the securities.

(3) The Fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the Fund's portfolio manager manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the Fund buying and selling all of the securities in its portfolio once in the course of the year. The higher a fund's portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the Fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable capital gains in the year. There is not necessarily a relationship between a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund. For the financial period-ended June 30, 2020, no sales of portfolio securities were made by the Fund. As a result the portfolio turnover rate for this period was zero.

(4) The information shown in this column is for the period beginning May 14, 2018 (the class' inception date) and ending December 31, 2018.

† Effective May 11, 2020, the management fee rate was reduced from 1.42% to 1.33%.

Financial instruments risk

The Fund invests in the BMO Monthly High Income Fund II, (“underlying fund”). The investment objective of the underlying fund is to generate a high level of monthly distributions with moderate volatility by investing primarily in a portfolio of trust units, equity securities and fixed income securities.

Currency risk

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Fund did not have significant exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to currency risk as the underlying fund invested primarily in Canadian securities.

Interest rate risk

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Fund did not have significant exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to interest rate risk.

Other market risk

The Fund has a significant indirect exposure to other market risk arising from its investment in the underlying fund, which invests in equity securities. Using historical correlation between the Fund's return and the return of its benchmark, if the benchmark, S&P/TSX Composite Index, had increased or decreased by 10%, with all other variables held constant, the Net Assets of the Fund would have increased or decreased, respectively, by $618 (December 31, 2019 — $447). Historical correlation may not be representative of future correlation, and accordingly, actual results may differ and the difference could be material.

Credit risk

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Fund did not have significant exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to credit risk.

Fair value hierarchy

The Fund classifies its financial instruments into three levels based on the inputs used to value the financial instruments. Level 1 securities are valued based on the quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2 securities are valued based on significant observable market inputs, such as quoted prices from similar securities and quoted prices in inactive markets or based on observable inputs to models.

Level 3 securities are valued based on significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Company's determination of assumptions that market participants might reasonably use in valuing the securities.

(1) This information is provided as at June 30 or December 31 of the period shown, as applicable.

(2) The management expense ratio of a particular class is calculated based on all expenses allocated to the class, as applicable, including all taxes and interest expenses but excluding brokerage commissions and other portfolio transaction costs, divided by the average daily net asset value of that class, annualized.

(3) The Fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the Fund's portfolio manager manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the Fund buying and selling all of the securities in its portfolio once in the course of the year. The higher a fund's portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the Fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable capital gains in the year. There is not necessarily a relationship between a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund. For the financial period-ended December 31, 2018, no sales of portfolio securities were made by the Fund. As a result the portfolio turnover rate for this period was zero.

(4) The information shown in this column is for the period beginning May 14, 2018 (the class' inception date) and ending December 31, 2018.

† Effective May 11, 2020, the management fee rate was increased from 0.65% to 1.38%.

Financial instruments risk

The Fund invests in the BMO Tactical Balanced ETF Fund, (“underlying fund”). The investment objective of the underlying fund is to provide long-term capital growth and preserve the capital invested by investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of global equity and fixed income exchange traded funds.

Currency risk

The Fund's exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to currency risk is summarized in the tables below. Amounts shown are based on the carrying value of monetary and non-monetary assets (including derivatives and the underlying principle (notional) amount of forward currency contracts, if any).

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, if the Canadian dollar had strengthened or weakened by 5% in relation to all foreign currencies, respectively, with all other variables held constant, the Net Assets of the Fund could possibly have decreased or increased, respectively, by approximately $37 (December 31, 2019 — $434). In practice, actual results may differ from this sensitivity analysis and the difference could be material.

Interest rate risk

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Fund did not have significant exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to interest rate risk.

Other market risk

The Fund has a significant indirect exposure to other market risk arising from its investment in the underlying fund, which invests in equity securities. Using historical correlation between the Fund's return and the return of its benchmark, if the benchmark, composed of 40% Bloomberg Barclays Global Aggregate Bond Index (C$) and 60% MSCI World Index (C$), had increased or decreased by 10%, with all other variables held constant, the Net Assets of the Fund would have increased or decreased, respectively, by $941 (December 31, 2019 — $426). Historical correlation may not be representative of future correlation, and accordingly, actual results may differ and the difference could be material.

Credit risk

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Fund did not have significant exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to credit risk.

Fair value hierarchy

The Fund classifies its financial instruments into three levels based on the inputs used to value the financial instruments. Level 1 securities are valued based on the quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2 securities are valued based on significant observable market inputs, such as quoted prices from similar securities and quoted prices in inactive markets or based on observable inputs to models.

Level 3 securities are valued based on significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Company's determination of assumptions that market participants might reasonably use in valuing the securities.

(1) This information is provided as at June 30 or December 31 of the period shown, as applicable.

(2) The management expense ratio of a particular class is calculated based on all expenses allocated to the class, as applicable, including all taxes and interest expenses but excluding brokerage commissions and other portfolio transaction costs, divided by the average daily net asset value of that class, annualized.

(3) The Fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the Fund's portfolio manager manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the Fund buying and selling all of the securities in its portfolio once in the course of the year. The higher a fund's portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the Fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable capital gains in the year. There is not necessarily a relationship between a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund.

(4) The information shown in this column is for the period beginning May 14, 2018 (the class' inception date) and ending December 31, 2018.

† Effective May 11, 2020, the management fee rate was reduced from 1.46% to 1.37%.

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, if the Canadian dollar had strengthened or weakened by 5% in relation to all foreign currencies, respectively, with all other variables held constant, the Net Assets of the Fund could possibly have decreased or increased, respectively, by approximately $145 (December 31, 2019 — $85). In practice, actual results may differ from this sensitivity analysis and the difference could be material.

Interest rate risk

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Fund did not have significant exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to interest rate risk.

Other market risk

The Fund has a significant indirect exposure to other market risk arising from its investment in the underlying fund, which invests in equity securities. Using historical correlation between the Fund's return and the return of its benchmark, if the benchmark, composed of 50% MSCI All Country World Index (C$) and 50% Bloomberg Barclays Global Aggregate Bond Index (C$ Hedged), had increased or decreased by 10%, with all other variables held constant, the Net Assets of the Fund would have increased or decreased, respectively, by $624 (December 31, 2019 — $340). Historical correlation may not be representative of future correlation, and accordingly, actual results may differ and the difference could be material.

Credit risk

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Fund did not have significant exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to credit risk.

Fair value hierarchy

The Fund classifies its financial instruments into three levels based on the inputs used to value the financial instruments. Level 1 securities are valued based on the quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2 securities are valued based on significant observable market inputs, such as quoted prices from similar securities and quoted prices in inactive markets or based on observable inputs to models.

Level 3 securities are valued based on significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Company's determination of assumptions that market participants might reasonably use in valuing the securities.

(1) This information is provided as at June 30 or December 31 of the period shown, as applicable.

(2) The management expense ratio of a particular class is calculated based on all expenses allocated to the class, as applicable, including all taxes and interest expenses but excluding brokerage commissions and other portfolio transaction costs, divided by the average daily net asset value of that class, annualized.

(3) The Fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the Fund's portfolio manager manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the Fund buying and selling all of the securities in its portfolio once in the course of the year. The higher a fund's portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the Fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable capital gains in the year. There is not necessarily a relationship between a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund.

† Effective May 11, 2020, the management fee rate was reduced from 1.47% to 1.42%.

Financial instruments risk

The Fund invests in the BMO Low Volatility International Equity ETF, (“underlying fund”). The investment objective of the underlying fund is to provide exposure to a low beta weighted portfolio of international stocks in developed countries outside of North America. Beta measures the security’s sensitivity to market movements. The underlying fund utilizes a rules based methodology to build a portfolio of less market sensitive stocks from a universe of international large cap stocks. The underlying portfolio is rebalanced in June and reconstituted in December.

Currency risk

The Fund's exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to currency risk is summarized in the tables below. Amounts shown are based on the carrying value of monetary and non-monetary assets (including derivatives and the underlying principle (notional) amount of forward currency contracts, if any).

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, if the Canadian dollar had strengthened or weakened by 5% in relation to all foreign currencies, respectively, with all other variables held constant, the Net Assets of the Fund could possibly have decreased or increased, respectively, by approximately $175 (December 31, 2019 — $109). In practice, actual results may differ from this sensitivity analysis and the difference could be material.

Interest rate risk

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Fund did not have significant exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to interest rate risk.

Other market risk

The Fund has a significant indirect exposure to other market risk arising from its investment in the underlying fund, which invests in equity securities. Using historical correlation between the Fund's return and the return of its benchmark, if the benchmark, MSCI EAFE Index, had increased or decreased by 10%, with all other variables held constant, the Net Assets of the Fund would have increased or decreased, respectively, by $262 (December 31, 2019 — $146). Historical correlation may not be representative of future correlation, and accordingly, actual results may differ and the difference could be material.

Credit risk

As at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Fund did not have significant exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to credit risk.

Fair value hierarchy

The Fund classifies its financial instruments into three levels based on the inputs used to value the financial instruments. Level 1 securities are valued based on the quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2 securities are valued based on significant observable market inputs, such as quoted prices from similar securities and quoted prices in inactive markets or based on observable inputs to models.

Level 3 securities are valued based on significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Company's determination of assumptions that market participants might reasonably use in valuing the securities.

(1) This information is provided as at June 30 or December 31 of the period shown, as applicable.

(2) The management expense ratio of a particular class is calculated based on all expenses allocated to the class, as applicable, including all taxes and interest expenses but excluding brokerage commissions and other portfolio transaction costs, divided by the average daily net asset value of that class, annualized.

(3) The Fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the Fund's portfolio manager manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the Fund buying and selling all of the securities in its portfolio once in the course of the year. The higher a fund's portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the Fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable capital gains in the year. There is not necessarily a relationship between a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund.

† Effective May 11, 2020, the management fee rate was reduced from 1.42% to 1.33%.

Financial instruments risk

The Fund invests in the BMO Concentrated Global Balanced Fund, (“underlying fund”). The investment objective of the underlying fund is to provide a competitive total rate of return, comprised of capital gains and income from interest and dividends, while maintaining a lower level of volatility than pure equity funds by investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of both Canadian and foreign equity and fixed income securities with no restrictions on the capital appreciation of the issuers.

Currency risk

The Fund's exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to currency risk is summarized in the table below. Amounts shown are based on the carrying value of monetary and non-monetary assets (including derivatives and the underlying principle (notional) amount of forward currency contracts, if any).

As at June 30, 2020, if the Canadian dollar had strengthened or weakened by 5% in relation to all foreign currencies, respectively, with all other variables held constant, the Net Assets of the Fund could possibly have increased or decreased, respectively, by approximately $69. In practice, actual results may differ from this sensitivity analysis and the difference could be material.

Interest rate risk

The Fund's exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to interest rate risk, by remaining term to maturity, is summarized in the following table:

Interest Rate Exposure as at

Less than one year 87One to three years 145Three to five years 246Five to ten years 241Greater than ten years 321Total 1,040

As at June 30, 2020, if the prevailing interest rates had been raised or lowered by 1%, assuming a parallel shift in the yield curve, with all other variables held constant, the Net Assets of the Fund could possibly have decreased or increased, respectively, by approximately $95. The Fund's interest rate sensitivity was determined based on portfolio weighted duration. In practice, actual results may differ from this sensitivity analysis and the difference could be material.

Other market risk

The Fund has a significant indirect exposure to other market risk arising from its investment in the underlying fund, which invests in equity securities. Using historical correlation between the Fund's return and

the return of its benchmark, if the benchmark, composed of 40% FTSE Canada All Government Bond Index and 60% MSCI World (C$), had increased or decreased by 10%, with all other variables held constant, the Net Assets of the Fund would have increased or decreased, respectively, by $244. Historical correlation may not be representative of future correlation, and accordingly, actual results may differ and the difference could be material.

Credit risk

The Fund's exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to credit risk, grouped by credit ratings, is summarized in the following table:

Fair value hierarchy

The Fund classifies its financial instruments into three levels based on the inputs used to value the financial instruments. Level 1 securities are valued based on the quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2 securities are valued based on significant observable market inputs, such as quoted prices from similar securities and quoted prices in inactive markets or based on observable inputs to models.

Level 3 securities are valued based on significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Company's determination of assumptions that market participants might reasonably use in valuing the securities.

(1) This information is provided as at June 30.(2) The management expense ratio of a particular class is calculated based on all expenses

allocated to the class, as applicable, including all taxes and interest expenses but excluding brokerage commissions and other portfolio transaction costs, divided by the average daily net asset value of that class, annualized.

(3) The Fund's portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the Fund's portfolio manager manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the Fund buying and selling all of the securities in its portfolio once in the course of the year. The higher a fund's portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the Fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable capital gains in the year. There is not necessarily a relationship between a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund. For the financial period-ended June 30, 2020, no sales of portfolio securities were made by the Fund. As a result the portfolio turnover rate for this period was zero.

Financial instruments risk

The Fund invests in the BMO Concentrated Global Equity Fund, (“underlying fund”). The investment objective of the underlying fund is to achieve long-term capital appreciation through investment in a portfolio of high quality equity or equity-related securities of issuers throughout the world. The portfolio manager invests primarily in equity companies that trade on recognized exchanges in countries around the world.

Currency risk

The Fund's exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to currency risk is summarized in the table below. Amounts shown are based on the carrying value of monetary and non-monetary assets (including derivatives and the underlying principle (notional) amount of forward currency contracts, if any).

As at June 30, 2020, if the Canadian dollar had strengthened or weakened by 5% in relation to all foreign currencies, respectively, with all other variables held constant, the Net Assets of the Fund could possibly have increased or decreased, respectively, by approximately $89. In practice, actual results may differ from this sensitivity analysis and the difference could be material.

Interest rate risk

As at June 30, 2020, the Fund did not have significant exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to interest rate risk.

Other market risk

The Fund has a significant indirect exposure to other market risk arising from its investment in the underlying fund, which invests in equity securities. Using historical correlation between the Fund's return and the return of its benchmark, if the benchmark, MSCI World Total Return Index (Net, C$), had increased or decreased by 10%, with all other variables held constant, the Net Assets of the Fund would have increased or decreased, respectively, by $183. Historical correlation may not be representative of future correlation, and accordingly, actual results may differ and the difference could be material.

Credit risk

As at June 30, 2020, the Fund did not have significant exposure, through its investment in the underlying fund, to credit risk.

Fair value hierarchy

The Fund classifies its financial instruments into three levels based on the inputs used to value the financial instruments. Level 1 securities are valued based on the quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2 securities are valued based on significant observable market inputs, such as quoted prices from similar securities and quoted prices in inactive markets or based on observable inputs to models.

Level 3 securities are valued based on significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Company's determination of assumptions that market participants might reasonably use in valuing the securities.

There is not necessarily a relationship between a high turnover rate and the performance of a fund.

The Company is the sole issuer of the individual variable insurance contract providing for investment in each Fund.

Each Fund is established under the authority of the Insurance Companies Act. Each of the Funds invest in direct investments or in underlying exchange traded funds or mutual fund units.

The individual variable insurance contract provides guarantees, which are payable either on maturity or on death.

The Statement of Financial Position and related notes of each of the Funds are as at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The Statement of Comprehensive Income, Statement of Changes in Net Assets Held for the Benefit of Policyowners, Statement of Cash Flows and related notes are of the period(s) ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019 except for a Fund established during the period(s) which is presented from the date of establishment to June 30 of the applicable period.

The financial statements were authorized for issuance by the Board of Directors of the Company on September 2, 2020.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2019, which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”).

2. Basis of preparation and presentation

These unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS and in accordance with International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34 – Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).

3. Summary of significant accounting policies financial instruments

Financial instruments include financial assets and financial liabilities such as equity and debt securities, investment funds and derivatives. These investments are part of a group of financial instruments that are managed and their performance is evaluated on a fair value basis in accordance with the Funds’ investment strategy.

The Funds classify and measure financial instruments in accordance with IFRS 9 Financial Instruments (“IFRS 9”). Upon initial recognition, financial instruments are recorded at fair value. A financial instrument is recognized when the Funds become a party to the contractual requirements of the instrument and derecognized when the right to receive cash flows from the instrument has expire of the Funds have transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership. As such, investment purchase and sale transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Investments and derivatives are subsequently measured as fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”) with changes in fair value recognized in the Statement of Comprehensive Income as “Change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation)”.

All financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized in the Statement of Financial Position.

The Funds’ withdrawable units contain multiple contractual obligations and consequently, do not meet the conditions to be classified as equity. As a result, the Funds’ obligations for net assets held for the benefit of policyowners are classified as financial liabilities and presented at the withdrawal amounts.

Cost of investmentsThe cost of investments represents the amount paid for each security and is determined on an average cost basis, and excludes commissions and other portfolio transaction costs, which are separately reported in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. Realized gains and losses on disposition are determined based on the cost of the investments

Fair value measurementFair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

For exchange-traded securities, close prices are considered to be fair value if they fall within the bid-ask spread. In circumstances where the close price is not within the bid-ask spread, the

BMO Guaranteed Investment Funds 178

Company determines the point within the bid-ask spread that is most representative of fair value based on the specific facts and circumstances.

For bonds, debentures, asset-backed securities and other debt securities, fair value is determined as the last traded market price or close price, where the close price falls within the bid-ask spread of the security. Short-term investments, if any, are held at amortized cost, which approximates fair value due to their short-term nature.

Mutual fund units held as investments are valued at their respective Net Asset Value (“NAV”) on each Valuation Date (the “Valuation Date” is each day on which the Toronto Stock Exchange is open for trading), as these values are the most readily and regularly available.

The Funds may enter into forward currency contracts for hedging purposes, either directly or indirectly or for non-hedging purposes. The fair value of forward currency contracts entered into by the Funds is recorded as the difference between the fair value of the contract on the Valuation Date and the fair value on the date the contract originated.

CashCash is comprised of cash and deposits with banks, which include bankers’ acceptances and overnight demand deposits. The carrying amount of cash approximates its fair value because it is short-term in nature.

Other assets and liabilitiesOther assets and other liabilities generally include receivable for investment sold, subscription receivable, distributions receivable from investment trusts, payable for investments purchased, redemptions payable and accrued expense. These financial assets and financial liabilities are short-term in nature and are subsequently measured at amortized cost, which approximates their fair value.

Investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associatesSubsidiaries are entities over which the Funds have control through their exposure or rights to variable returns from their investment, and have the ability to affect those returns through their power over the entity. The Funds have determined that they are an investment entity and as such, they account for subsidiaries, if any, at fair value. Joint ventures are investments where the Funds exercise joint control through an agreement with other shareholders, and associates are investments in which the Funds exert significant influence over operating, investing, and financing decisions (such as entities in which the Funds own 20% – 50% of voting shares), all of which, if any, have been designated at FVTPL.

Unconsolidated structured entitiesThe Company has determined that the underlying funds in which the Funds may invest are unconsolidated structured entities. This determination is based on the fact that decision making about the underlying funds is not governed by the voting right or other similar right held by the Funds. Similarly, investments

in securitizations, asset-backed securities and mortgage-backed securities are determined to be interests in unconsolidated structured entities.

The Funds invest in underlying funds whose investment objectives range from achieving short-term to long-term income and capital growth potential. Underlying funds may use leverage in a manner consistent with their respective investment objectives and as permitted by Canadian securities regulatory authorities. Underlying funds finance their operations by issuing redeemable units which are puttable at the holders’ option and entitles the holder to a proportionate stake in the respective fund’s Net Assets. The change in fair value of each of the underlying funds during the periods is included in “Change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation)” in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

Mortgage-related securities are created from pools of residential or commercial mortgage loans, including mortgage loans made by savings and loan institutions, mortgage bankers, commercial banks and others. Asset-backed securities are created from many types of assets, including auto loans, credit card receivables, home equity loans, and student loans.

The Funds do not provide and have not committed to providing any additional significant financial information or other support to the unconsolidated structured entities other than its investment in the unconsolidated structured entities.

Offsetting of financial assets and financial liabilitiesFinancial instruments are presented at net or gross amounts in the Statement of Financial Position depending on the existence of intention and legal right to offset opposite positions of such instruments held with the same counterparties. Amounts offset in the Statement of Financial Position are transactions for which the Funds have legally enforceable rights to offset and intend to settle the positions on a net basis. Amounts not offset in the Statement of Financial Position relate to transactions where a master netting arrangement or similar agreement is in place with a right to offset only in the event of default, insolvency or bankruptcy, or where the Funds have no intention of settling on a net basis.

Income recognitionDistributions from underlying funds are recognized on the ex-distribution date.

Interest income from interest bearing investments is recognized in the Statement of Comprehensive Income as it is earned using the effective interest rate. Interest receivable shown in the Statement of Financial Position is accrued based on the interest bearing instruments’ stated rates of interest.

Foreign currency translationThe fair value of investments and other assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into the Funds’ functional currency at the rates of exchange prevailing at the period-end date. Purchases and sales of investments, and income and expenses are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. Realized foreign exchange gains (losses) on completed transactions are included

in “Net realized gain (loss)” and unrealized foreign exchange gains (losses) are included in “Change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation)” in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. Foreign exchange gains (losses) relating to cash, receivables and payables are included in “Foreign exchange gain (loss)” in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

Increase or decrease in net assets held for the benefit of policyowners per unit“Increase (decrease) in net assets held for the benefit of policyowners per unit” of a class in the Statement of Comprehensive Income represents the increase (decrease) in net assets held for the benefit of policyowners attributable to the class, divided by the weighted average number of units of the class outstanding during the period.

Portfolio turnover ratioThe Funds’ portfolio turnover ratio indicates how actively the Funds’ portfolio manager manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover ratio of 100% is equivalent to the fund buying and selling all of the securities in its portfolio once in the course of the year. The higher a fund’s portfolio turnover ratio in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the fund in the year, and the greater the chance of an investor receiving taxable capital gains in the year. There is not necessarily a relationship between a high turnover ratio and the performance of a fund.

Income taxesThe Funds are segregated funds under the provisions of the Income Tax Act (Canada). The Funds’ net income, including net realized capital gains and losses for the calendar year, is allocated to beneficiaries so that the Funds will not be liable for income taxes. As a result, the Funds have determined that they are in substance not taxable and therefore do not record income taxes in the Statement of Comprehensive Income and/or recognize any deferred tax assets or liabilities in the Statement of Financial Position.

4. Units and unit transactions

The withdrawable units of the Funds are classified as financial liabilities. The units have no par value and are entitled to allocations, if any. Upon withdrawal, a unit is entitled to a proportionate share of the Fund’s NAV. The Funds allocate their net income, including net realized capital gains and capital losses, to ensure the Funds will not be liable for income taxes on capital gains, dividends and interest. The Funds have no restrictions or specific capital requirements on the subscriptions and withdrawal of units. The relevant movements in withdrawable units are shown on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets Held for the Benefit of Policyowners. In accordance with their investment objectives and strategies, and the risk management practices outlined in Note 8, the Funds endeavor to invest the subscriptions received in appropriate investments, while maintaining sufficient liquidity to meet withdrawals, with such liquidity being augmented by short-term borrowings or disposal of investments where necessary.

The NAV per unit of a class is computed by dividing the NAV of the Fund attributable to the class (that is, the total fair value of the assets attributable to the class less the liabilities attributable to the class) by the total number of units of the class of the Fund outstanding at such time.

Expenses directly attributable to a class are charged to that class. Other expenses, income, realized and unrealized gains and losses from investment transactions are allocated proportionately to each class based upon the relative NAV of each class.

75/75 Class A Units are for policyowners that are professionals and business owners seeking downside risk protection and creditor protection.

75/100 Class A Units are for policyowners that are retirees and seniors seeking estate protection or wealth transfer advantages.

100/100 Class A Units are for policyowners that are pre-retirees looking for maximum protection and to lock-in market gains as they get closer to retirement.

75/75 Prestige Class Units, 75/100 Prestige Class Units and 100/100 Prestige Class Units are only available to policyowners who meet and maintain a minimum investment of $250, either individually or collectively with other policyowners who are their family members and reside at the same address.

75/75 Class F Units, 75/100 Class F Units and 100/100 Class F Units are available to policyowners that have a fee based account with a distributor and the policy is held in nominee-name. The distributor is subject to terms and conditions set out in a Class F agreement between the distributor and the Company.

5. Critical accounting judgements and estimates

The preparation of financial statements requires the use of judgement in applying the Funds’ accounting policies and to make estimates and assumptions about the future. The following discusses the most significant accounting judgements and estimates that the Funds have made in preparing their financial statements:

Accounting judgements:

Functional and presentation currencyThe Funds policyowners are mainly Canadian residents, with the subscriptions and redemptions of the withdrawable units denominated in Canadian dollars. The Funds invest in Canadian dollar denominated securities. The performance of the Funds are measured and reported to the policyowners in Canadian dollars. The Company considers the Canadian dollar as the currency that most faithfully represents the economic effects of the underlying transactions, events and conditions. The financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, which is the Funds’ functional and presentation currency.

Classification and measurement of financial instruments and application of fair value optionIn classifying and measuring financial instruments held by the Funds, the Company is required to make an assessment of the Funds’ business model for managing financial instruments and the contractual cash flow characteristic of the financial asset.

In classifying and measuring financial instruments held by the Funds, the Company is required to make significant judgements in determining the most appropriate classification in accordance with IFRS 9. The Company has assessed the Funds’ business model with respect to the manner in which financial assets and financial liabilities are managed as a group and performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, and has concluded that FVTPL in accordance with IFRS 9 provides the most appropriate measurement and presentation of the Funds’ investment portfolio. The collection of principal and interest is incidental to the fair value business model.

Accounting estimates:The Funds have established policies and control procedures that are intended to ensure these judgements are well controlled, independently reviewed, and consistently applied from period to period. The estimates of the value of the Funds’ assets and liabilities are believed to be appropriate as at the reporting date.

6. Management fees and expenses

Each Fund is responsible for the payment of fees and expenses related to its operations. Such fees and expenses include management fees and other recoverable fund operating expenses paid by the Funds. Collectively, all the fees and expenses paid or payable by the Funds, including management fees and other recoverable fund operating expenses divided by the Funds’ average NAV, is known as the Management Expense Ratio (“MER”).

7. Related party transactions

Management feesEach Fund pays a management fee for investment management and administration services of the Fund. The management fee varies from Fund to Fund and is calculated and accrued on a daily basis as an annual percentage of the NAV of each Fund.

The management fee of a Fund includes the management fee and expenses charged by the underlying funds. There is no duplication of management fees when the Fund invests in an underlying fund.

Administration feesEach Fund incurs certain operating expenses that include audit and legal fees and expenses; custodian and transfer agency fees; costs attributable to the administration of the segregated funds, including the cost of the record keeping system; fund accounting and valuation costs; costs of financial reports; including information folders, required to comply with applicable regulatory requirements; filing fees, and statements and communications to policyowners. The Company pays for these expenses and in return, each Fund pays the Company an

administration fee of 0.25%. The administration fee is calculated and accrued daily as an annual percentage of the average NAV of each Fund.

Insurance feesEach Fund pays an insurance fee for the provision of insurance benefits to the Company. The insurance fee differs from Fund to Fund and is calculated and accrued daily as an annual percentage of NAV of each Fund and is included in the management expense ratio.

Brokerage commissionsThe Funds may execute trades with and or through BMO Nesbitt Burns Inc., an affiliate of the Company based on established standard brokerage agreements at market prices. These fees, if any, are included in “Commissions and other portfolio transaction costs” in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

Other related partiesThe Company may, on behalf of the Funds, enter into transactions or arrangements with or involving other subsidiaries or affiliates of the Bank of Montreal, or certain other persons or companies that are related or connected to the Company. These transactions or arrangements may include transactions or arrangements with or involving subsidiaries or affiliates of the Bank of Montreal, BMO Asset Management Inc., or other investment funds offered by Bank of Montreal, and may involve the purchase or sale of portfolio securities through or from subsidiaries or affiliates of the Bank of Montreal, the purchase or sale of securities issued or guaranteed by subsidiaries or affiliates of the Bank of Montreal, entering into forward contracts with subsidiaries or affiliates of the Bank of Montreal acting as the counterparty, the purchase or redemption of units of other Bank of Montreal investment funds or the provision of services to the Company.

8. Financial instrument risk

The Funds may be exposed to a variety of financial risks that are concentrated in their investment holdings. The concentration risk table groups securities by asset type, geographic region and/or market segment. The Funds’ risk management practices outline the monitoring of compliance to investment guidelines. The Company manages the potential effects of these financial risks on the Funds’ performance by employing and overseeing professional and experienced portfolio advisors that regularly monitor the Funds’ positions, market events and diversify investment portfolios within the constraints of the investment guidelines.

Where a Fund invests in another investment fund or investment funds, they may be indirectly exposed to the financial instrument risk of the underlying fund(s), depending on the investment objectives and the type of securities held by the underlying fund(s). The decision to buy or sell an underlying fund is based on the investment guidelines and positions, rather than the exposure of the underlying funds.

Notes to the Financial Statements (unaudited) (cont’d)(All amounts in thousands of Canadian dollars)June 30, 2020

181 BMO Guaranteed Investment Funds

a) Currency riskCurrency risk is the risk that the fair value of financial instruments denominated in currencies, other than the functional currency of the Funds, will fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates. Investments in foreign markets are exposed to currency risk as the prices denominated in foreign currencies are converted to the Funds’ functional currency in determining fair value. The Funds may enter into forward currency contracts for hedging purposes to reduce foreign currency exposure or to establish exposure to foreign currencies. IFRS 7 considers the foreign exchange exposure relating to non-monetary assets and liabilities to be a component of market price risk not foreign currency risk. However, the Company monitors the exposure on all foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities.

b) Interest rate riskInterest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of the Funds’ interest bearing investments will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates. The Funds’ exposure to interest rate risk is concentrated in its investment in debt securities (such as bonds, money market investments, short-term investments and debentures) and interest rate derivative instruments, if any. Other assets and liabilities are short-term in nature and/or non- interest bearing.

c) Other market riskOther market risk is the risk that the fair value of a financial instrument will fluctuate as a result of changes in market prices (other than those arising from interest rate risk or currency risk), whether those changes are caused by factors specific to the individual financial instrument or its issuer, or factors affecting all similar financial instruments traded in a market. Other assets and liabilities are monetary items that are short-term in nature, as such they are not subject to other market risk.

d) Credit riskCredit risk is the risk that a loss could arise from a security issuer or counterparty to a financial instrument not being able to meet its financial obligations. The fair value of debt securities includes consideration of the creditworthiness of the debt issuer. Credit risk exposure for over-the-counter derivative instruments is based on the Funds’ unrealized gain of the contractual obligations with the counterparty as at the reporting date. The credit exposure of other assets is represented by its carrying amount.

e) Liquidity riskThe Funds’ exposure to liquidity and other liabilities risk is concentrated in the daily cash withdrawals of units and other liabilities. The Funds primarily invest in securities that are traded in active markets and can be readily disposed. In addition, the Funds retain sufficient cash positions to maintain liquidity. The Funds may, from time to time, enter into over-the-counter derivative contracts or invest in unlisted securities, which are not traded in an organized market and may be illiquid. Securities for which a market quotation could not be obtained and may be illiquid are identified in the Schedule of Investment Portfolio. The proportion of illiquid securities to NAV of the Fund is monitored

by the Company to ensure it does not exceed the regulatory limit and does not significantly affect the liquidity required to meet the Fund’s financial obligations.

9. Significant event

The current spread of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) has caused a global pandemic and the unprecedented responses taken by many governments, including closing borders, restricting international and domestic travel, and the imposition of prolonged social distancing or similar restrictions, as well as the forced or voluntary closure of, or operational changes to many retail and other businesses, has resulted in fundamental changes in the business world with significant impacts on operations and world markets. The impacts on operations includes changes in work environments, inherent controls risk and cyber-risks; while the main impacts on investments includes increase in market risks, market volatility and liquidity risk, with its impacts on valuations.

The Company has implemented and will continue to review the situation with a view to implementing additional controls and procedures to adequately address the risks and reduce the impacts of the COVID-19 on the Funds, to the extent possible.
