DBRS Publishes Updated Canadian Split Share and Income Fund Methodologies

DBRS has today published updated Canadian Split Share and Income Fund methodologies as follows:

-- Rating Canadian Split Share Companies and Trusts
-- Stability Ratings for Canadian Structured Income Funds

These updates supersede previous versions published in July 2015. While certain details have been clarified in the methodologies, changes overall are not material and DBRS has determined that no ratings will change as a result of these updates.

Notes:
DBRS rating definitions and the terms of use of such ratings are available at www.dbrs.com.
