Investors Group new portfolio families now available

Winnipeg, MB – July 13, 2009: Two new portfolio families, Investors Cornerstone PortfoliosTM and Allegro Corporate Class PortfoliosTM, are now available to Canadian investors after receiving the necessary regulatory approvals.

The Investors Cornerstone Portfolios are designed to provide high levels of capital stability as well as a launching pad for dollar cost average investment strategies during uncertain markets.

The new Allegro Corporate Class Portfolios* are a one-stop solution for investors accumulating wealth for retirement. Those Portfolios that offer new T series will enable investors to obtain tax-deferred cash-flow (by avoiding withdrawals) to help them through their retirement years.

Having also received the necessary regulatory approvals, a new international equity fund mandate – Investors International Equity Fund and Class* - is also available for sale. The new Investors International Equity mandate provides an option for clients looking for diversification outside of North America along with long-term capital growth.

*This mutual fund is a separate class of shares issued by Investors Group Corporate Class Inc.
