Independent Auditor’s Report (continued)

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of each of the Funds, which comprise the statement ofinvestment portfolio as at September 30, 2013 and the statements of net assets, operations and changes in netassets as at and for the periods indicated in note 1, and the related notes, which comprise a summary ofsignificant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Management’s responsibility for the financial statementsManagement is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements of each of theFunds in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles, and for such internal control asmanagement determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from materialmisstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s responsibilityOur responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statements of each of the Funds based on our audits.We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Those standardsrequire that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assuranceabout whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in thefinancial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of therisks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those riskassessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of thefinancial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for thepurpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includesevaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates madeby management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained in our audits is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basisfor our audit opinion.

OpinionIn our opinion, the financial statements of each of the Funds present fairly, in all material respects, the financialposition of each of the Funds, the results of each of their operations and the changes in each of their net assets asat and for the periods indicated in note 1 in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(All amounts in thousands of Canadian dollars, except per unit data)September 30, 2013

1. The FundBMO Global Strategic Bond Fund (“the Fund”) is anopen-ended mutual fund trust established under thelaws of the province of Ontario and is governed by aMaster Declaration of Trust dated November 6, 2007.The Master Declaration of Trust was amended onOctober 23, 2008 and November 3, 2009 to permitcertain funds to offer a multi-series structure. Inaddition to the existing Series A units, certain Fundsare permitted to offer Series I, Series F, AdvisorSeries, Series T5, Series T6 and/or Classic Seriesunits. Each series is intended for different kinds ofinvestors and has different management fees andfixed administration fees. Refer to Note 7(a) for theFund’s series and respective launch date(s) andNote 7(d) for management fee rates and fixedadministration fee rates for each series.

BMO Investments Inc. (the “Manager”) is themanager and Trustee of the Fund. The Manager is awholly-owned subsidiary of Bank of Montreal.

The information provided in these audited financialstatements is for the period(s) ended September 30,2013 and 2012. Financial information provided for afund established during the period(s) is presentedfrom the date of inception as noted in Note 7(a).Financial information provided for a series establishedduring the period(s) is presented from the launch dateas noted in Note 7(a).

2. Summary of significant accounting policiesThese financial statements have been prepared inaccordance with Canadian generally acceptedaccounting principles (“Canadian GAAP”), includingestimates and assumptions made by managementthat may affect the reported amounts of assets,liabilities, income and expenses during the reportedperiods. Actual results could differ from estimates.

Fund mergersThe Manager has adopted the purchase method ofaccounting for certain Fund mergers which occurredduring the periods. Under this method, one of theFunds in each merger is identified as the acquiringFund, and is referred to as the “Continuing Fund”,and the other Fund involved in the merger is referredto as the “Terminated Fund”. This identification isbased on the comparison of the relative net assetvalues of the Funds as well as consideration of thecontinuation of such aspects of the Continuing Fundas: investment advisors; investment objectives andpractices; type of portfolio securities; and managementfees and expenses. Where applicable, refer toNote 7(a) for the details of the merger transactions.

Valuation of investmentsCanadian GAAP requires the use of bid prices forlong positions and ask prices for short positions inthe fair valuation of investments traded in an activemarket, rather than the use of closing prices currentlyused for the purpose of determining Net Asset Value(“NAV”). For investments that are not traded in anactive market, Canadian GAAP requires the use ofvaluation techniques, incorporating factors thatmarket participants would consider in setting a price.

The NAV is the value of the total assets of a Fund lessthe fair value of its total liabilities at a Valuation Date(the “Valuation Date” is each day on which the TorontoStock Exchange is open for trading) determined inaccordance with Part 14 of National Instrument 81-106 – Investment Fund Continuous Disclosure(“NI 81-106”) for the purpose of processingunitholder transactions. For financial statementpurposes, valuations are determined in accordancewith Canadian GAAP. This may result in a differencebetween the net assets per unit for each series andthe NAV per unit for each series. Refer to Note 7(b)for the comparison between NAV per unit and netassets per unit for each series.

Investments are deemed to be held for trading.Investments are recorded at their fair value with thechange between this amount and average cost beingrecorded as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) invalue of investments in the Statement of Operations.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (cont’d)(All amounts in thousands of Canadian dollars, except per unit data)September 30, 2013

Securities and exchange traded funds listed on arecognized public securities exchange in NorthAmerica are valued for financial statement purposesat their bid prices for long positions and ask pricesfor short positions. Procedures are in place to fairvalue securities traded in countries outside of NorthAmerica daily, to avoid stale prices and to take intoaccount, among other things, any significant eventsoccurring after the close of a foreign market.

For bonds, debentures, asset-backed securities andother debt securities, the fair value represents the bidprice provided by independent security pricingservices. Short-term investments, if any, are includedin the Statement of Investment Portfolio at their fairvalue. Unlisted warrants, if any, are valued based ona pricing model which considers factors such as themarket value of the underlying security, strike priceand terms of the warrant. Mutual fund units held asinvestments are valued at their respective NAVs oneach Valuation Date, as these values are the mostreadily and regularly available.

The Manager uses fair value pricing when the price ofa security held in the Fund is unavailable, unreliableor not considered to reflect the current fair value, andmay determine another value which it considers tobe fair and reasonable using the services of third-party valuation service providers, or using a valuationtechnique that, to the extent possible, makes maximumuse of inputs and assumptions based on observablemarket data including volatility, comparablecompanies and other applicable rates or prices.

Investment transactionsInvestment transactions are accounted for on thetrade date. Realized gains (losses) from the sale ofinvestments and unrealized appreciation(depreciation) in the value of investments arecalculated with reference to the average cost of therelated investments which exclude brokeragecommissions and other trading expenses. All net

realized gains (losses), unrealized appreciation(depreciation) in value, and transaction costs areattributable to investments and derivativeinstruments which are deemed held for trading, andare included in the Statement of Operations.

Client brokerage commissions, where applicable, areused as payment for order execution services orresearch services. The portfolio advisors or Managermay select brokers, including their affiliates, whocharge a commission in excess of that charged byother brokers (“soft dollars”) if they determine in goodfaith that the commission is reasonable in relation tothe order execution and research services utilized. Itis the Manager’s objective that over time, all clientsreceive benefits from the client brokerage commissions.

Transaction costs, such as brokerage commissions,incurred in the purchase and sale of securities by theFund are expensed and included in “Commissionsand other portfolio transaction costs” in theStatement of Operations.

Cost of investmentsThe cost of investments represents the amount paidfor each security and is determined on an averagecost basis.

Income recognitionInterest income is recognized on an accrual basis.Dividend income and distributions from investmenttrust units are recognized on the ex-dividend and ex-distribution date, respectively.

Interest on inflation-indexed bonds will be paidbased on a principal value, which is adjusted forinflation. The inflation adjustment of the principalvalue is recognized as part of interest income in theStatement of Operations. If held to maturity, the Fundwill receive, in addition to a coupon interest payment,a final payment equal to the sum of the par value andthe inflation compensation accrued from the originalissue date. Interest is accrued on each Valuation Datebased on the inflation adjusted par value at that timeand is included in “Interest” in the Statement ofOperations.

Translation of foreign currenciesThe fair value of investments and other assets andliabilities in foreign currencies are translated into theFund’s functional currency at the rates of exchangeprevailing at the period-end date. Purchases andsales of investments, and income and expenses aretranslated at the rates of exchange prevailing on therespective dates of such transactions. Foreignexchange gains (losses) on completed transactionsare included in “Realized gain (loss) on sale ofinvestments” and unrealized foreign exchange gains(losses) are included in “Change in unrealizedappreciation (depreciation) in value of investments”in the Statement of Operations. Realized andunrealized foreign exchange gains (losses) on assets(other than investments) and liabilities are includedin “Realized gain (loss) on foreign exchange” in theStatement of Operations.

Forward currency contractsA forward currency contract is an agreementbetween two parties (the Fund and the counterparty)to purchase or sell a currency against anothercurrency at a set price on a future date. The Fundmay enter into forward currency contracts forhedging purposes which can include the hedging ofall or a portion of the currency exposure of aninvestment or group of investments, either directly orindirectly. The Fund may also enter into thesecontracts for non-hedging purposes which caninclude increasing the exposure to a foreign currencyor to shift exposure to foreign currency fluctuationsfrom one country to another.

The value of forward currency contracts entered intoby the Fund is recorded as the difference between thevalue of the contract on the Valuation Date and thevalue on the date the contract originated.

Changes in the value of open forward currencycontracts at each Valuation Date are recognized inthe Statement of Operations as “Change in unrealizedappreciation (depreciation) in value of forwardcurrency contracts”.

Amounts realized at the close of the contracts arerecorded as “Realized gain (loss) on forwardcurrency contracts” in the Statement of Operations.

Futures contractsFutures contracts are financial agreements topurchase or sell a financial instrument at a contractedprice on a specified future date. Futures contracts arevalued at the gain or loss that would arise as a resultof closing the position at the Valuation Date, the“notional value”. Any difference between the notionalvalue on each Valuation Date and the notional valueon the previous Valuation Date is recorded as “Netincome (loss) from derivative contracts” in theStatement of Operations. Treasury bills or cash areheld as margin against the futures contracts.

Credit default swap contractsA credit default swap contract is an agreement totransfer credit risk from one party, a buyer ofprotection, to another party, a seller of protection. TheFund as a seller of protection would be required to paya notional or other agreed upon value to the buyer ofprotection in the event of a default by a third party. Inreturn, the Fund would receive from the counterpartya periodic stream of payments over the term of thecontract provided that no event of default occurs. Ifno default occurs, the Fund would keep the stream ofpayments and would have no payment obligations.

The Fund as a buyer of protection would receive anotional or other agreed upon value from the sellerof protection in the event of a default by a thirdparty. In return, the Fund would be required to payto the counterparty a periodic stream of paymentsover the term of the contract provided that no eventof default occurs.

Credit default swap contracts are fair valued dailybased upon quotations from independent securitypricing sources. Premiums paid or received, if any,are included in “Net income from derivative contracts”in the Statement of Operations. Net periodicpayments are accrued daily and recorded as “Netincome (loss) from derivative contracts” in theStatement of Operations. When credit default swapcontracts expire or are closed out, gains or losses arerecorded as “Net income (loss) from derivativecontracts” in the Statement of Operations.

Option contractsThe Fund may engage in option contract transactionsby purchasing (long positions) or writing (shortpositions) call or put option contracts. Thesecontracts have different risk exposures for the Fundwhereas the risk for long positions will be limited tothe premium paid to purchase the option contracts,the risk exposure for the short position is potentiallyunlimited until closed or expired.

Purchased option contractsThe premium paid for purchasing a call option isrecorded as an asset in the Statement of Net Assets.The premium is valued at every Valuation Date at anamount equal to the fair value of the option thatwould have the effect of closing the position. Thechange in the difference between the premium andthe fair value is shown as “Change in unrealizedappreciation (depreciation) in value of investments”in the Statement of Operations.

When a purchased option expires, the Fund willrealize a loss equal to the premium paid. When apurchased option is closed, the gain or loss the Fundwill realize will be the difference between theproceeds and the premium paid. When a purchasedcall option is exercised, the premium paid is added tothe cost of acquiring the underlying security. When apurchased put option is exercised, the premium paidwill be subtracted from the proceeds from the sale ofthe underlying security that had to be sold.

Written option contractsThe premium received from writing a call or putoption is recorded as a liability in the Statement ofNet Assets.

When a written option expires, the Fund will realize again equal to the premium received. When a writtenoption is closed, the Fund will realize a gain or lossequal to the difference between the cost at which thecontract was closed and the premium received. When

a written call option is exercised, the premiumreceived is added to the proceeds from the sale of theunderlying investments to determine the realizedgain or loss. When a written put option is exercised,the premium received will be subtracted from the costof the underlying investment the Fund had purchased.

The gain or loss that the Fund realizes when apurchased or written option is expired or closed isrecorded as “Net income (loss) from derivativecontracts” in the Statement of Operations.

Securities lendingA Fund may engage in securities lending, whereapplicable, pursuant to the terms of an agreementwhich includes restrictions as set out in Canadiansecurities legislation. Collateral held is governmentTreasury Bills and qualified Notes.

Income from securities lending, where applicable, isincluded in the Statement of Operations and isrecognized when earned. The securities on loancontinue to be displayed in the Statement ofInvestment Portfolio. The market value of thesecurities loaned and collateral held is determineddaily. Aggregate fair values of securities on loan andrelated collateral held in trust as at September 30,2013 and September 30, 2012, where applicable, aredisclosed in Note 7(h).

Increase or decrease in net assets from operations per unit“Increase (decrease) in net assets from operations perunit” of a series in the Statement of Operationsrepresents the increase (decrease) in net assets fromoperations attributable to the series, divided by theweighted average number of units of the seriesoutstanding during the period.

Short-term trading penaltyTo discourage excessive trading, the Fund may, at theManager’s sole discretion, charge a short-termtrading penalty. This penalty is paid directly to theFund and is included in “Interest” in the Statement of Operations, if any.

Other assets and liabilitiesIncome receivable, subscriptions receivable, futurescontract margin receivable, and due from broker aredesignated as loans and receivables and recorded atcost or amortized cost. Similarly, amounts due tobroker, futures contract margin payable, redemptionspayable, distributions payable and accrued expensesare designated as financial liabilities and reported atamortized cost. Other assets and liabilities are short-term in nature, and are carried at cost or amortizedcost which approximates fair value.

Future accounting standardsCanadian investment entities will be required toprepare their financial statements in accordance withInternational Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”),as issued by the International Accounting StandardsBoard (“IASB”), for fiscal years beginning on or afterJanuary 1, 2014. As a result, the Fund will report itsfinancial results for the interim period endingMarch 31, 2015, prepared on an IFRS basis. It willalso provide comparative data on an IFRS basis,including an opening balance sheet as at October 1,2013 (“transition date”).

The differences between the Fund’s accountingpolicies under Canadian GAAP and IFRSrequirements will result in measurement andrecognition differences on transition to IFRS. The netimpact of these differences will be recorded in theincrease/ decrease in net assets attributable toredeemable unitholders.

Significant accounting changes resulting from our adoption of IFRSThe main accounting changes listed below shouldnot be considered a comprehensive list of impacts ofadopting IFRS, but rather the most significant ofcertain key changes.

The framework for fair valuation is set out underIFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement (“IFRS 13”), whichincludes the requirements for the measurement anddisclosure of fair value. If an asset or liabilitymeasured at fair value has a bid price and an askprice, the standard requires valuation to be based on

a price within the bid-ask spread that is mostrepresentative of fair value. The standard allows theuse of mid-market pricing or other pricingconventions that are used by market participants as apractical means for fair value measurements within abid-ask spread. Thus this standard will impact thenet assets per unit for financial statement reportingpurposes compared to current standards, and mayalso result in the elimination of the differencesbetween the net asset per unit and NAV per unit atthe financial statement reporting date. While IFRSdoes not require interest income to be disclosed fordebt instruments measured at Fair Value throughProfit or Loss, when interest income is disclosed,IFRS requires that the effective interest rate methodof calculating accrued interest be used rather thanthe straight-line amortization method. The Manageris assessing the impact of this change to the Fund’sfinancial statements. The Manager has not identifiedany changes that will impact NAV per unit as a resultof the transition to IFRS.

Where the Fund holds controlling interest in aninvestment, it is the Manager’s expectation that theFund will qualify as an Investment Entity inaccordance with IFRS 10 Consolidated FinancialStatements. As such, the Fund will not be required toconsolidate its investments, but rather to hold theinvestments at Fair Value through Profit or Lossregardless of whether those investments arecontrolled. If the Fund fair values the investments itcontrols, it may be required to make additionalfinancial statement disclosures on its controlledinvestments in accordance with IFRS 12 Disclosure ofInterests in Other Entities (“IFRS 12”). IFRS 12 alsorequires additional disclosures if the Fund isdetermined to qualify as an investment entity withouthaving all of the typical characteristics of aninvestment entity.

The criteria contained within IAS 32 FinancialInstruments: Presentation (“IAS 32”) will result in theclassification of the unitholders’ equity as a liabilitywithin the Fund’s Statement of Net Assets, unless allconditions required for equity classification are met.The Manager is currently assessing the Fund’sunitholder structure to determine classificationunder IAS 32.

redemptions of units except as disclosed in Note 7(a),if any. The relevant movements in capital are shownon the Statement of Changes in Net Assets. Inaccordance with its investment objectives andstrategies, and the risk management practicesoutlined in Note 6, the Fund endeavours to invest thesubscriptions received in appropriate investmentswhile maintaining sufficient liquidity to meetredemptions, such liquidity being augmented byshort-term borrowings or disposal of investmentswhere necessary.

4. Income taxesThe Fund qualifies as a mutual fund trust under theprovisions of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the “TaxAct”). Distributions of all net taxable income andsufficient amounts of net realized capital gains foreach taxation year will be paid to unitholders. Part ofthe Fund’s net income and net realized capital gainsnot paid or payable, is subject to income tax. It is theintentions of the Fund to distribute all of its incomeand sufficient net realized capital gains so that theFund will not be subject to income tax. Income tax onnet realized capital gains not paid or payable isgenerally recoverable by virtue of refundingprovisions contained in tax legislation, asredemptions occur.

Non-capital losses that arose in 2004 and 2005 areavailable to be carried forward for ten years andapplied against future taxable income. Non-capitallosses that arose in 2006 and thereafter are availableto be carried forward for twenty years. Capital lossesfor income tax purposes may be carried forwardindefinitely and applied against capital gains realizedin future years.

The Fund’s non-capital and capital losses for incometax purposes as of the tax year-ended December 2012are included in Note 7(c), if applicable.

Under IFRS, cash flows statement is one of theprimary financial statements required to bepresented. The Fund will therefore be presentingcash flows statement in its set of financial statementsin accordance with the presentation requirements inIAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows (“IAS 7”).

3. Unit valuationUnits of the Fund are offered for sale on a continuousbasis and may be purchased or redeemed on anyValuation Date at the NAV per unit of a particularseries. The NAV per unit of a series for the purposesof subscription or redemption is computed bydividing the NAV of the Fund attributable to the series(that is, the total fair value of the assets attributable tothe series less the liabilities attributable to the series)by the total number of units of the series of the Fundoutstanding at such time. This amount may bedifferent from the net asset per unit of a seriescalculation, which is presented on the Statement ofNet Assets. Generally, any differences are due tovaluing actively traded securities at bid prices forCanadian GAAP purposes while NAV typically utilizesclosing price to determine fair value for the purchaseand redemption of units. See Note 7(b) for thecomparison between NAV per unit and net assets perunit for each series.

Expenses directly attributable to a series are chargedto that series. Other expenses, income, realized andunrealized gains and losses from investmenttransactions are allocated proportionately to eachseries based upon the relative NAV of each series.

CapitalThe capital of the Fund is represented by issued andredeemable units with no par value. The units areentitled to distributions, if any, and to payment of aproportionate share based on the Fund’s NAV per unitupon redemption. The Fund has no restrictions orspecific capital requirements on the subscriptions and

Where the Fund invests in other investment fund(s),it may be indirectly exposed to the financial instrumentrisks of the underlying fund(s), depending on theinvestment objectives and the type of securities heldby the underlying fund(s). The decision to buy or sellan underlying fund is based on the investmentguidelines and positions, rather than the exposure ofthe underlying fund(s).

(a) Currency riskCurrency risk is the risk that the value of investmentsdenominated in currencies, other than the functionalcurrency of the Fund, will fluctuate due to changes inforeign exchange rates. Investments in foreignmarkets are exposed to currency risk as the pricesdenominated in foreign currencies are converted tothe Fund’s functional currency in determining fairvalue. The Fund may enter into forward currencycontracts for hedging purposes to reduce foreigncurrency exposure or to establish exposure to foreigncurrencies. The Fund’s exposure to currency risk, ifany, is further discussed in Note 7(f).

(b) Interest rate riskInterest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of theFund’s interest-bearing investments will fluctuate dueto changes in market interest rates. The Fund’sexposure to interest rate risk is concentrated in itsinvestment in debt securities (such as bonds, moneymarket instruments, short-term investments anddebentures) and interest rate derivative instruments,if any. Other assets and liabilities are short-term innature and/or non-interest bearing. The Fund’sexposure to interest rate risk, if any, is furtherdiscussed in Note 7(f).

(c) Other market riskOther market risk is the risk that the fair value of afinancial instrument will fluctuate as a result ofchanges in market prices (other than those arisingfrom interest rate risk or currency risk), whetherthose changes are caused by factors specific to theindividual financial instrument or its issuer, orfactors affecting all similar financial instruments

traded in a market. Other assets and liabilities aremonetary items that are short-term in nature, as suchthey are not subject to other market risk. The Fund’sexposure to other market risk, if any, is furtherdiscussed in Note 7(f).

(d) Credit riskCredit risk is the risk that a loss could arise from asecurity issuer or counterparty to a financialinstrument not being able to meet its financialobligations. The fair value of debt securities includesconsideration of the credit worthiness of the debtissuer. Credit risk exposure for over-the-counterderivative instruments is based on the Fund’sunrealized gain of the contractual obligations withthe counterparty as at the reporting date. The creditexposure of other assets is represented by its carryingamount. The Fund’s exposure to credit risk, if any, isfurther discussed in Note 7(f).

The Fund may enter into securities lending transactionswith approved counterparties. Credit risk associatedwith these transactions is considered minimal as allcounterparties have a sufficient approved credit ratingand the market value of collateral held by the Fundmust be at least 102% of the fair value of securitiesloaned, if any, as disclosed in Note 7(h).

(e) Liquidity riskThe Fund’s exposure to liquidity risk is concentratedin the daily cash redemptions of units. The Fundprimarily invests in securities that are traded inactive markets and can be readily disposed. Inaddition, the Fund retains sufficient cash and cashequivalent positions to maintain liquidity. The Fundmay, from time to time, enter into over-the-counterderivative contracts or invest in unlisted securities,which are not traded in an organized market and maybe illiquid. Securities for which a market quotationcould not be obtained and may be illiquid areidentified on the Statement of Investment Portfolio.The proportion of illiquid securities to the NAV of theFund is monitored by the Manager to ensure it doesnot exceed the regulatory limit and does notsignificantly affect the liquidity required to meet theFund’s financial obligations.
