GABF Gabelli Financial Services Opportunities ETF

GAMCO Investors, Inc. (“GAMCO”) (OTCQX: GAMI) announced that effective September 13, 2024, its actively managed Gabelli Financial Services Opportunities ETF (NYSE Arca: GABF) will convert from a “semi-transparent” ETF to a “transparent” ETF and will disclose its portfolio holdings daily. This is subject to the registration statement being declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission.   From inception through September 10, 2024, GABF generated a total return of 71.9% and an annualized return of 26.0%.

Under normal market conditions the Fund invests at least 80% of the value of its net assets in the securities of companies principally engaged in the financial services sector. GABF was launched in May 2022 based on a belief that over the long term, markets benefit from what Warren Buffett coined the “American Tailwind.” This growth enabled the U.S. to lead modern global economies. Financial services institutions remain a key element in facilitating this prosperity and benefiting from this growth.

The Fund offers a loyalty program under which the first $25 million invested in GABF will incur no fees or expenses until at least September 13, 2025.

About Gabelli Financial Services Opportunities ETF

Under normal market conditions, the Fund invests at least 80% of the value of its net assets in the securities of companies principally engaged in the group of industries comprising the financial services sector.

Financial services companies operate in heavily regulated industries, which are subject to change. The underlying securities are subject to credit and interest rate sensitivity risk, which could impact earnings. Additionally, since financial services firms are correlated to GDP, a decline in the economic environment could impact profitability.

Returns represent past performance and do not guarantee future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so, upon redemption, shares may be worth more or less than their original cost.
