The Institutional Investment Strategy Fund ("Fund") is a closed-end interval fund. The Fund is advised by Buena Capital Advisors, LLC doing business as Ivy Invest (the "Adviser") and is self-distributed by the Adviser through its Ivy Invest application. The Fund is designed for long-term investments and is not intended as a complete investment program. An investment in the Fund may not be suitable for you if you will need the money you invest within a specified timeframe.
Before investing you should carefully consider the Fund’s investment objective, risks, charges and expenses. This and other information is in the prospectus and summary prospectus, a copy of which may be obtained by visiting Fund Documents on this page. Please read the prospectus carefully before investing.
The Fund is offered only to United States persons, and information on this site is intended only for such persons. This website is not an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy shares in the Fund to any person in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation, purchase, or sale would be unlawful under the securities laws of such jurisdiction. Furthermore, the Fund is not available for sale outside of the United States. References to other third party funds should not to be considered an offer to buy or sell these securities.
The Fund commenced operations on March 5, 2024. The performance data featured represents past performance, which is no guarantee of future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment in the Fund will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when sold, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Returns are historical and include changes in principal and reinvested dividends and capital gains and do not reflect the effect of taxes. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted.
The Buena Blended Index, S&P 500 Index, and Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index are unmanaged indices, not available for direct investment and, unlike the Fund, have no management fees or operating expenses to reduce their reported returns. The Fund does not seek to achieve performance that is comparative to an index. The S&P 500 Index is a market capitalization-weighted index of 500 widely held common stocks. The Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index measures the investment grade, U.S. dollar-denominated, fix-rated taxable bond market. The Buena Blended Index is comprised of 70% S&P 500 Index and 30% Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index.
Investment in the Fund involves substantial risk. The Fund is not suitable for investors who cannot bear the risk of loss of all or part of their investment. The Fund is appropriate only for investors who can tolerate a high degree of risk and do not require a liquid investment. The Fund has no history of public trading and investors should not expect to sell shares other than through the Fund’s repurchase policy regardless of how the Fund performs. The Fund does not intend to list its shares on any exchange and does not expect a secondary market to develop. Investors are encouraged to consult with appropriate financial professionals before considering an investment in the Fund.
All investing involves risk including the possible loss of principal. Shares in the Fund are highly illiquid and can be sold by shareholders only in the quarterly repurchase program of the Fund, which allows for up to 5% of the Fund’s outstanding shares at NAV to be redeemed each quarter. Due to transfer restrictions and the illiquid nature of the Fund’s investments, you may not be able to sell your shares when, or in the amount that, you desire. The Fund’s quarterly repurchase policy may require the Fund to liquidate portfolio holdings earlier than the Adviser would otherwise do so and may also result in an increase in the Fund’s expense ratio.
Non-diversified funds have the ability to invest a larger percentage of assets in the securities of a smaller number of issuers than a diversified fund. As a result, poor results by a single issuer could adversely affect fund results more than if the Fund invested in a larger number of issuers.
Diversification does not assure a profit, nor does it protect against a loss in a declining market. Asset allocations are subject to change and should not be considered a recommendation to buy or sell any security.
The Adviser's management fee is intended to be a unitary fee, and therefore the Adviser agrees to pay most other expenses of the Fund. The Adviser has agreed to pay all expenses incurred by the Fund except for the management fee, interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and other expenses incurred in placing or settlement of orders for the purchase and sale of investment instruments, acquired fund fees and expenses, accrued deferred tax liability, extraordinary expenses, shareholder servicing fees and distribution fees and expenses paid by the Fund under any distribution plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1.
