Corporate Structure
Independent Advisory Committee
The Fund has an Independent Advisory Committee (IAC) composed of individuals who are independent of New Haven Mortgage Corporation (the Mortgage Banker) and New Haven Treasury Management Inc. (the Mortgage Manager) to provide advice and recommendations to the Mortgage Banker and Mortgage Manager with respect to the investment portfolio of the Fund. The members of the IAC include Mr. Cecil B. Lynch, C.A. of Port Hope, Ontario, Mr. Gordon R. Atkinson, of Cobourg, Ontario and Mr. David Goldman, of Richmond Hill, Ontario, each of whom have extensive professional and business experience in real estate and mortgage lending.
Where the Mortgage Banker or the Mortgage Manager proposes to enter into a transaction on behalf of the Fund, in which there is an actual or potential conflict of interests of the Mortgage Banker or the Mortgage Manager on the one hand, and the interests of the Fund on the other, the Fund will seek the advice and recommendations of the IAC. The IAC meets as needed to review the overall operation of the fund.
