Investment strategies, portfolio management team and fund name changes

Effective July 30, 2021, Invesco Canadian Endeavour Fund and Invesco Active Multi-Sector

Credit Fund will change their investment strategies.

The Invesco Canadian Endeavour Fund investment strategies enhancement will provide a

solution for investors looking for a pure asset allocation to Canadian equities within their

overall portfolio, as the fund will typically be 100% invested in Canadian equities but may

invest 10% of its non-cash assets in foreign equities. This change offers investors a high

conviction, low turnover portfolio that is diversified by business idea and industry, while being

committed to a stable and predictable geographic allocation.

The Invesco Active Multi-Sector Credit Fund investment strategies enhancement

implements a new “optimized yield approach” to the fund’s strategic asset allocation meant

to be more dynamic, forward looking and better optimize for yield per unit of risk. The fund

continues to be focused on nimble, tactical allocation across fixed-income assets, security

selection as a driver of alpha, and the identification and implementation of opportunistic

ideas within a highly risk-controlled investment process.

In addition, effective July 30, 2021, Invesco Canadian Endeavour Fund and Invesco

Canadian Opportunity Class will change their names to Invesco Pure Canadian Equity Fund

and Invesco Pure Canadian Equity Class, respectively, and change their portfolio

management team as follows:

Current portfolio management team Revised portfolio management team

Clayton Zacharias

Alan Mannik

Brian Tidd

David Pirie
