TORONTO, Aug. 5 /CNW/ - TD Asset Management Inc. (TDAM) today reported
long-term fund net sales totaling $295 million for the month, and money market
fund net redemptions of $167 million. Assets invested in TD Mutual Funds
totaled $51.5 billion as of the end of July.
    "We experienced one of our strongest Julys on record for long term fund
net sales as investors and advisors maintained their confidence in the value
and management of our fund line-up," said Tim Pinnington, President TD Mutual
Funds. "Gross redemptions also continued to decline, down 50 per cent from
last year."
    TD Mutual Funds' highest selling long-term funds for the month include
the TD Short Term Bond Fund, TD Dividend Growth Fund, TD Canadian Bond Fund
and the TD Income Advantage Portfolio.
    "We saw strong results for many of our fixed-income products, such as the
best-selling TD Short Term Bond Fund. Low interest rates for cash deposits and
cash equivalents have made them an attractive option for investors," added
Pinnington.
