Knoxville, Tenn. – BPV Family of Funds has announced the launch of two new, publicly traded mutual funds created specifically to achieve sustained wealth accumulation and preservation. Both the BPV Core Diversification Fund and the BPV Wealth Preservation Fund utilize actively managed, macro investment strategies that address investor risk through diversification and hedging.
In describing the mutual funds, BPV Family of Funds Senior Partner and CEO, Mike West, stated, “The goal of the BPV Core Diversification Fund is to achieve equity-like returns with substantially lower exposure to risk by fund investors. Risk is actively managed by fund diversification across non-correlated asset classes. The BPV Wealth Preservation Fund seeks to provide absolute returns with downside protection. Utilizing a new breed of hybrid investment strategies, the fund seeks to safeguard investor principal and enables individuals to put cash resources to work, while maintaining an emphasis on wealth preservation.”
