We will have to see whether this kind of technical leadership converts into swift mass-market adoption or not.
ROCKVILLE, MD -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 01/10/07 -- Rydex Investments today announced twice-a-day
pricing capabilities for a selection of Rydex mutual funds via National
Financial, a provider of Integrated Brokerage Solutions® to nearly 350
broker/dealers representing 70,000 brokers, and the clearing provider for
Rydex Financial Services. The new pricing capabilities, which match the
pricing functionality currently offered direct through Rydex, give brokers
and their clients the ability to take advantage of market liquidity.
One of the few fund families to offer twice-a-day pricing, Rydex
Investments introduced the capability in 2000 to help investors manage
intra-day risk, especially during a volatile market.
"We believe in empowering investors with the tools necessary to manage risk
and enhance returns," said Kevin McGovern, mutual fund business manager at
Rydex Investments. "We're pleased to be offering twice-a-day pricing to a
significant investor population through the diverse distribution network of
National Financial, one of the largest clearing and custody providers in
the U.S."
While mutual funds are traditionally priced once a day according to their
market close value, select Rydex funds on the National Financial platform
will offer pricing at 10:45 a.m. and 4:00 p.m.
With the exception of the Rydex U.S. Government Money Market Fund, which is
available for intra-day exchanges, the following funds price twice daily
through Rydex Investments and National Financial:
