RG Alts Launches First Tactical Gold & Bitcoin Mutual Fund

DALLAS, Dec. 15, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Ranger Capital, in partnership with IDX Insights, announces the launch of the RG Aurum+ fund (GLDPX) which became effective September 8th.  GLDPX seeks to provide risk-managed exposure to precious metals and crypto currency via the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC).  The fund is designed to provide a risk-conscious option for investors interested in exposure to “alternative fiat” asset classes like gold and crypto currencies.  The fund may be a first of its kind in the fact that it will provide tactical exposure to bitcoin through the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC).

“With unprecedented monetary and fiscal stimulus, we’ve seen more investors start to look to both gold and bitcoin as hedges.  The problem is that both of these asset classes are prone to periods of high volatility and large drawdowns.  We believe that investors need a risk-managed investment option that provides access to both of these asset classes,” explained Ben McMillan, CIO of RG Alts.

Scott Canon, President & CEO of Ranger Capital said, “We launched RG Alts to provide a cost-effective way for investors to access alternative exposures in a liquid & transparent manner.  As we face a world with low growth, negative real rates and unprecedented ‘money printing’, we believe that smart exposure to gold and crypto can provide a lot of utility to investors.  Now is the time for a renewed focus on efficient exposure to robust investment strategies.”
