Auspice today announced the launch of Auspice Diversified Trust (ADT) and Auspice One Fund Trust (AOFT) as public alternative mutual funds that can be invested in by retail investors. The funds, previously only available to institutional and accredited investors on an exempt basis, will maintain their existing track records, including the 16+ year track record of the firm’s longest standing and flagship fund, Auspice Diversified Trust.
“We are excited to launch ADT and AOFT as two publicly traded alternative mutual funds. They were both previously offered on an exempt basis and can now be bought by all retail investors. ADT and AOFT are also well positioned to generate positive returns in this environment with interest rates, inflation, and volatility no longer compressed” said Tim Pickering, President of Auspice. “While there are a number of resource equity funds, there are few funds that provide direct exposure to commodities in Canada, an even fewer managers that have the tenure and track record of Auspice.”
