Products and Services

• Daily Target-Based Investment Fund

  This product is the primary offering of the company, involving a fund that seeks to achieve returns in alignment with a specified daily target. The investment strategy includes selecting financial instruments that, when combined, are believed to mirror the performance of an underlying small-cap U.S. stock market index. This approach aims to provide investors with a consistent return pattern closely tied to the daily performance objectives set forth by ProShare Advisors.

• Non-Diversified Fund Management

  As part of its service offerings, the company specializes in the management of non-diversified funds. This involves a strategic allocation of the fund's assets into selected issuers, potentially concentrating investments in a smaller number of financial instruments than what is typically seen in diversified portfolios. This strategy is designed for investors seeking potentially higher returns that come with higher risk levels, attributable to the concentrated nature of the fund’s investments.
