TORONTO, July 25, 2011 /CNW/ - AlphaNorth Asset Management (the "Manager") is pleased to announce the launch of the ALPHANORTH GROWTH FUND (the "Fund") on Monday July 25th, 2011. The AlphaNorth Growth Fund is launching at $10 per unit and with a minimum initial investment of $1,000. It is eligible for registered tax plans.

The objective of the AlphaNorth Growth Fund is to generate industry leading long-term returns by providing investors with diversified exposure to primarily small and mid-capitalization Canadian companies that offer attractive risk-reward characteristics. These will typically be companies with market capitalizations between $100 million and $5 billion.

The AlphaNorth Growth Fund employs a similar investment style and methodology to the AlphaNorth Partners Fund. AlphaNorth believes that superior long term equity returns are achievable by exploiting inefficiencies in the Canadian small cap universe through careful selection of securities. The firm combines technical analysis with bottom-up and top-down strategy in the selection of investments offering the best reward versus risk opportunities.

The FundSERV code for the AlphaNorth Growth Fund Series A shares is ANF010 and the Series F shares is ANF011. The AlphaNorth Growth Fund is available to Canadian individuals and institutional investors. The Fund can be purchased through approved dealers across Canada, including investment advisors, brokers and financial planners.
