Russell Fixed Income Class - US Dollar Hedged Series The Russell Fixed Income US Dollar Hedged Series is ideal for investors who want US dollar denominated exposure while maintaining key Canadian and international asset classes. The US Dollar Hedged Series offers protection from movements in the US/CAD dollar exchange rate. A fixed-income solution with built-in currency hedging. This innovation from Russell Investments allows you to invest US dollars in a portfolio of high-quality Canadian assets while shielding yourself from the impact of USD$/CAD$1 exchange rate movements. Your initial investment is made in US dollars, which Russell converts into Canadian dollars to purchase the underlying securities held by the fund. Russell then uses a currency hedging strategy to protect your investment from future USD/CAD currency fluctuations.
