Invest with SPYC

What is SPYC?

The adviser seeks to achieve the Fund s investment objective by investing primarily in equity securities of U.S. companies and applying a convexity option overlay strategy to the equity investments. Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in equity securities of U.S. companies, primarily by purchasing exchange-traded funds ("ETFs"). The adviser does not frequently trade U.S. equities but seeks to maintain consistent exposure to the U.S. equity market. Up to twenty percent of the Fund s net assets will be subject to the Fund s convexity option overlay. The option overlay consists of purchasing exchange-traded and over the counter ( OTC ) put and call options on the S&P 500 Index or an S&P 500 Index ETF.
