Save a Child's Heart - UnGala 2018
Yorkville was a proud sponsor of the annual UnGala event hosted by Save a Child’s Heart Foundation of Canada this past Wednesday. Over 300 people gathered at Chef’s Assembly Hall in downtown Toronto in support of this great cause.
Save a Child’s Heart Foundation works towards improving the quality and accessibility of cardiac care for children. Through their programs in Israel, they provide life-saving cardiac treatment to children from developing countries and train health care professionals from these countries to have the skills to deliver quality care in their home communities.
Toronto Wine Tasting Event
To add to the excitement of the Toronto International Film Festival, clients and friends of Yorkville Asset Management gathered at the Shangri-La Hotel on September 12th to celebrate good company … and good wine! Guests were able to taste a selection of exclusive reserve wines, and indulge in a variety of delicious foods.
All in all, the event was a great success. Thank you to our clients, friends and family for spending the evening with us!

Distributions are required to pass-through the taxable gains and income generated by the fund over the past year.
As is the case with the majority of our mutual fund investors, if these distributed amounts are not taken as cash, they are simply reinvested in the form of new shares of the respective fund series. As is the industry standard, to keep the overall value of a client’s account in equilibrium, the value of the brand new shares added to a client’s account will result in a corresponding reduction of the NAV of each share of the fund after the distribution is complete.
For taxable (open) accounts, distributions on March 28th, 2018 will generate a tax slip generated in January / February of 2019. For registered accounts, like RRSPs and others, no tax slips will be generated as a result of these distributions.
Please find the March 28th, 2018 distributions information here. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us.

The team at Yorkville Asset Management Inc. would like to extend a Happy New Year and well wishes to all clients, advisors, and friends for 2018.
On January 3rd, 2018, a press release (https://www.heritageresp.com/knowledge-first-press-release) was released announcing the sale of Heritage Education Funds RESP (Heritage RESP) to Knowledge First Financial (KFF). We at Yorkville feel that this is a positive change that will create a dominant national RESP organization, serving a broader range of Canadians combining the skills and experiences of two successful companies.
The sale only involves Heritage’s RESP business, and does not involve the parent company, Heritage Financial Group Limited (HFGL), and its other business interests. These interests include an equity investment in Yorkville, to which HFGL continues to be an important and valued partner.
Yorkville has maintained a shared service arrangement with Heritage for many non-core logistical functions, and we are making some changes today to transition these services (i.e., IT, accounting, etc.) onsite. The team at Yorkville is actively managing these adjustments, and is well-prepared for the changes to come.
Looking forward, 2018 will be a productive and busy time for Yorkville, as we continue to support our Private Client service offerings, Mutual Fund business, and new ventures. We are rapidly growing our asset base, which will require the continued expansion of our capable professional team, and the development of new offices. As always, we are committed to providing great service and clear communication to our clients. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions you may have.
Again, we wish you all the best for 2018.
