“The Cannabis Growth Fund offers investors professional portfolio management, which we believe is important in a rapidly changing industry,” stated Korey Bauer, portfolio manager of the Cannabis Growth Fund. “We believe active management is critical when investing in an industry that has frequent and evolving developments in regulation, applications and acquisition activity.”

The Fund plans to invest primarily in exchange listed equity securities of companies in the cannabis industry. These companies are located around the globe and engaged exclusively in legal activities under national and local laws, including U.S. federal and state law, as applicable. Many companies that the Fund seeks to hold legally participate in activities including agriculture technology, biotechnology, cultivation and retail, products and extracts, industrial hemp, and ancillary products and services that complement the cannabis industry. In addition, the manager has the flexibility to invest in options in an attempt to enhance the Fund’s return and reduce volatility.
