Canadian asset management company Sentry Investments will enhance its client reach with the deal.

Sentry Investments has entered into an agreement with Great-West Life for the latter firm to act as sub-advisor to its Sentry Global Income Fund.

Together with London Life and Canada Life, Great-West Life’s portfolios include fund-of-fund and stand-alone, multi-managing platforms, built primarily to preserve capital while generating income.
 
The agreement will introduce investors with Great-West Life, London Life, and Canada Life to Sentry’s investment capabilities.
 
"Combining our wealth management skills with Great-West Life's high-quality segregated fund contracts will help provide Canadians with the investment solutions they require as they look for income-producing alternatives," said Gaelen Morphet, chief investment officer of Sentry Investments.

George Turpie, senior vice-president, investment products, wealth management at Great-West Life, added: "The Sentry Global Income Fund will be a valuable addition to our fund line-up, which will continue providing Canadian investors with access to global high-quality fixed-income and equity securities."

Sentry Investments manages over $18 billion in assets on behalf of more than 500,000 Canadian investors.
