Introducing the Kensington Dynamic Growth Fund (KAGIX)
Kensington News
By Bruce DeLaurentis
Kensington Asset Management, LLC is pleased to announce the introduction of the Kensington Dynamic Growth Fund (“KAGIX”), a Mutual Fund that offers an active, non-traditional approach to managing risk in equity securities. The Fund’s portfolio manager, Bruce DeLaurentis has employed a similar strategy in the separately managed account (SMA) format since 2015.
The investment approach relies on a proprietary model-based framework designed to detect and act on market trends. Investors in KAGIX can potentially benefit from participation in rising markets, with potential low correlation to the market during periods of volatility or distress. KAGIX’s overall goal is to generate above-average risk-adjusted returns over a full market cycle.
KAGIX seeks to alternate between equity index securities during favorable market trends and a combination of money market and Treasury securities of varying maturities in unfavorable trends.
“Kensington is thrilled to expand our product suite through the launch of the Dynamic Growth Fund,” said Bruce DeLaurentis, founder of Kensington and portfolio manager for the Fund. “In our opinion, the treacherous market conditions experienced in the wake of the global pandemic only underscore the need for an effective, time-tested active management approach. We believe KAGIX can potentially assist growth-oriented investors by providing a tactical, risk-managed approach to equity investing.”
The mutual fund’s structure provides the following benefits:
-
- Generally broad diversification with low initial investments
- Access to top professional investment management expertise
- Cost-efficiency (due to scale)
- Daily liquidity and trading execution
Mr. DeLaurentis also serves as portfolio manager to the Kensington Managed Income Fund, currently advised by Advisors Preferred, LLC. Launched in May 2019, the Kensington Managed Income Fund has approximately $244 million of Assets Under Management as of October 26, 2020.
The Kensington Dynamic Growth Fund is available through several custodial platforms. Please see the prospectus for details relating to the expenses of each class.
