CIBC Asset Management Inc. announces risk rating change and fund terminations Français
TORONTO, Aug. 13, 2025 /CNW/ - August 13, 2025 /CNW/ - CIBC (TSX: CM) (NYSE: CM) -- CIBC Asset Management Inc. (CAM) today announced a risk rating change and that it intends to terminate the CIBC Multi-Asset Global Balanced Private Pool, CIBC Multi-Asset Global Balanced Income Private Pool, and Renaissance Optimal Inflation Opportunities Portfolio (the "Funds") on or about November 28, 2025 (the "Termination Date"). The decision to terminate the Funds was made due to their relatively small asset size. Effective immediately, no further purchases for units of the Funds will be accepted. Redemption requests for the Funds will be accepted until the close of business on Termination Date. Any units still held by unitholders as of the Termination Date will be subject to a mandatory redemption. Prior to the Termination Date, CAM will, to the extent reasonably possible, sell or convert the assets of each Fund to cash and, after paying or making adequate provision for all of the Funds' liabilities, as soon as practicable following the Termination Date, distribute the net assets of each Fund pro rata among unitholders of record of the applicable Fund based on the class net asset value per unit. In accordance with securities legislation, further details of the terminations will be sent to unitholders of the Funds no less than 60 days prior to the Termination Date. CAM encourages all unitholders to consult with their advisors to discuss the financial and tax implications of the terminations and to determine the solution that best suits their investment needs and personal situation. Risk rating change CAM is changing the risk rating for Renaissance Diversified Income Fund. The change will be reflected in the renewal of the Renaissance Investments family of funds, Axiom Portfolios, CIBC Private Pools, CIBC Fixed Income Pools, CIBC Fixed Income Funds and CIBC Alternative Mutual Funds Simplified Prospectus, effective on or about August 13, 2025. The new risk rating was determined in accordance with the standardized risk classification methodology mandated by the Canadian Securities Administrators. No changes have been made to the investment objectives, investment strategies or management of the affected mutual fund. CAM reviews the risk rating for each fund at least annually and adjusts whenever the existing investment risk level is no longer appropriate.

IFF Launches POWERFRESH® ACE 2000, a Bread Fresh-Keeping Solution That 'Aces' the Shelf-Life Test
Article content New enzyme solution delivers longer-lasting softness, operational efficiency and market-driven innovation tailored to U.S. bakery needs Article content NEW YORK — IFF (NYSE: IFF) — a global leader in flavors, fragrances, food ingredients, health and biosciences — announces the launch of POWERFRESH® ACE 2000 to the U.S. market. This next-generation fresh-keeping enzyme solution is designed to help industrial bakeries deliver bread with improved softness, resilience and cohesiveness throughout shelf life — meeting specific consumer demands while improving operational efficiency. Article content Article content 'Developed by IFF's biosciences experts, this advancement underscores our commitment to helping bakeries deliver exceptional value and maintain a competitive edge in the industry,' said Clementina Dellomonaco, senior vice president of food biosciences at IFF. 'Whenever we enhance the consumer experience, we help our customers build stronger brand equity, drive repeat purchases and unlock long-term growth.' As ingredient prices rise and consumer expectations for long-lasting freshness continue to grow, U.S. bakeries face unprecedented pressure to maintain product quality without increasing operational strain. A recent survey shows that 60% of U.S. consumers would buy bread marketed as 'fresher for longer,' and more than half expect at least four days of freshness at purchase. 1 POWERFRESH® ACE 2000 addresses these priorities by improving softness and resilience for up to 34 days, while reducing waste and inventory complexity. Article content In IFF-led trials, POWERFRESH® ACE 2000 demonstrated a strong performance across both white and whole-wheat bread applications. This enzyme consistently delivered superior resilience while maintaining structure and visual appeal, even at lower dosage levels compared to market alternatives, resulting in stable loaves with excellent texture and mouthfeel. Crucially, it preserved the soft, yet easy-to-butter texture that consumers prefer, even several days after purchase. Article content 'As a staple food, bread is a regular fixture in consumers' baskets — so expectations for quality are high and constant,' said Emily Wagener, industry leader for food and beverage enzymes for North America at IFF. 'At the same time, bakeries face challenges that require smarter solutions. POWERFRESH® ACE 2000 is bakers' ally to deliver high-quality products with the delicious texture and freshness consumers expect, every time.' Article content As the latest addition to IFF's established POWERFRESH® portfolio, this new solution offers a smarter path to consistent bread quality and efficiency — whether used in new formulations or to optimize existing ones. Improved product resilience enables industrial bakeries to extend distribution and better manage shelf-life targets. These operational gains also align with sustainability goals by reducing waste, minimizing returns and optimizing resources across the supply chain. Article content Learn more about POWERFRESH® ACE 2000 and IFF's innovative bakery enzyme portfolio here. Welcome to IFF At IFF (NYSE: IFF), we make joy through science, creativity and heart.
