Help with Couch Potato portfolio with RBC
Opening up a new investment account with RBC and using the couch potato method. Need a little advice on which MF I should be buying.
My intended allocation 40% bond, 20% Canadian Equity, 20% US Equity, 20% International Equity
So 20% RBF556 (Canada Index fund)
20% RBF 557 (US Index Fund)
20% RBF559 (International Index Currency Neutral Fund) - this is the only international index fund I think they offer
for the 40% bonds, I'm unsure which fund I should be picking? I'm thinking RBF1005 (Series D Bond Fund) but it seems they invest primarily in Canadian government bonds. Should I be picking something with more corporate/global exposure? (e.g. RBF 267 - Series D Global Bond Fund or RBF1095 - Series D Monthly Bond Income Fund) Thanks in advance!
