La Capitale adds nine new investment accounts to the 15 it already offers

Quebec City – October 19, 2011 – La Capitale Financial Group is expanding its product offering with the addition of nine new investment accounts.

This move increases La Capitale's total number of investment accounts to 24. "Our goal is to meet the diverse needs of our investor-clients by providing them with a wider range of investment vehicles," said Daniel Sauro, Director of Sales Development, Savings and Investments, at La Capitale.

A host of investment products

For many years, La Capitale has provided investors with the opportunity to take advantage of the expertise of two major investment fund managers: Dynamic Funds and AGF. Starting in October, it will offer two additional Dynamic funds, including a small cap fund, and two others from AGF, including an emerging markets fund.

As well, five other funds will also be available: Three managed by Fidelity and two by TD Asset Management. "By increasing our investment accounts from 15 to 24 and partnering with two new portfolio managers, La Capitale has almost doubled its investment product offering, thereby providing more investment options. A highlight is the addition of TD Asset Management's low volatility shares fund that allows investors who fear steep market fluctuations to invest in vehicles that offer less volatility but have the potential for good returns," Mr. Sauro explained.

These new investment accounts became available from La Capitale Financial Services and from La Capitale's brokerage network on October 19.
