CHICAGO, May 11, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- RiverNorth Capital, a leading investment management firm specializing in quantitative and qualitative closed-end fund trading strategies, is pleased to announce that the RiverNorth/DoubleLine Strategic Income Fund (RNSIX, RNDLX) has exceeded $100 million in assets under management as of May 9, 2011. The open-end mutual fund, launched on December 30, 2010, in partnership with DoubleLine Capital LP, is available on most major investment platforms and was added recently to LPL, Raymond James and UBS.
"Surpassing the $100 million mark within a few months of launching is a milestone for the Fund that reflects RiverNorth's reputation as a specialist in identifying and capitalizing on market inefficiencies," said Patrick Galley, RiverNorth's Chief Investment Officer. "The Fund is a truly unique investment vehicle, combining two experienced managers and their complementary alternative investment strategies into a single mutual fund."
The Strategic Income Fund combines RiverNorth's expertise in closed-end fund trading with expertise of the DoubleLine team, led by the firm's CEO and Chief Investment Officer Jeffery Gundlach, a highly regarded portfolio manager known for his disciplined approach to fixed income investment and risk management. The Fund's goal is to achieve current income and overall total return.
The Fund employs an opportunistic approach designed to capitalize on the inefficiencies within the closed-end fund space and bond markets. With the flexibility to respond to market dynamics, the Fund allocates its assets among three different strategies:
- Tactical closed-end fixed income (RiverNorth);
- Core fixed income (DoubleLine); and
- Opportunistic income (DoubleLine).
"DoubleLine is proud of the strong partnership we've established with RiverNorth, whose disciplined and opportunistic investment approach complements our focus on active risk management and security selection," Gundlach said. "We look forward to our continued partnership."
"The success of the RiverNorth/DoubleLine Strategic Income Fund reflects our ongoing growth and focus on aligning with complementary managers who have a record of successfully identifying unique market opportunities," said RiverNorth CEO Brian Schmucker. "We are pleased with the Fund's performance to date and are very optimistic about its future."

Investments in closed end funds are subject to investment risk, including the possible loss of the entire principal amount that you invest. The value of these securities, like other market investments, may move up or down, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably. At any point in time an investment may be worth less than the original investment, even after considering the reinvestment of fund dividends and distributions. Closed-end funds also carry price risk, or the risk that shares may trade at prices different from their net asset values.
