MONTREAL, Sept. 12, 2019 /CNW Telbec/ -  Fiera Capital Corporation (TSX: FSZ) (the "Manager" or the "Company"), the manager of Canadian Convertibles Plus Fund (the "Fund") (TSX: CCI.UN), confirmed today that, as previously announced, the Fund will be terminated on or about September 26, 2019.

As set out in the Fund's declaration of trust, the Fund does not have a fixed termination date but the Manager may terminate the Fund without the approval of unitholders if the Manager believes it is no longer economically practical to continue the Fund or that it would be in the best interests of the Fund to do so.
