MONTREAL, Aug. 7, 2020 /CNW/ - Fiera Capital Corporation ("Fiera Capital"), the investment fund manager of the Fiera Capital Income Opportunities Fund (the "Fund"), announced the closure of the Fund, effective on or about October 6, 2020.

This decision was made primarily as a result of the small number of unitholders and assets under management in the Fund.

Fiera Capital encourages unitholders of the Fund to consult with their advisors to understand the financial and tax implications of switching and redeeming their units and to determine the solution that best meets their individual investment needs and circumstances.
