NEW YORK, Feb. 7, 2023 /PRNewswire/ - Subversive Capital Advisor (the "Advisor" or the "Company"), a Registered Investment Advisor primarily focused on different mission-driven emerging sectors, has partnered with Unusual Whales, an option flow platform and information service, to launch the Advisor's Unusual Whales Subversive Democratic exchange-traded fund ("ETF") (Ticker: NANC) and Unusual Whales Subversive Republican ETF (Ticker: KRUZ). NANC and KRUZ are actively managed diversified ETFs that are listed on February 7, 2023 on Cboe BZX Exchange. Christian H. Cooper will act as the ETFs' Portfolio Manager.

“Subversive does not express a view on the NANC and KRUZ underlying equities, rather, we buy or sell securities based on Unusual Whales’ reporting of what members of Congress disclose they hold,” said Mr. Cooper.

Unusual Whales, which serves at the data provider, has added, “We are an affordable options and equity data platform that has been at the forefront of the intersection of politics and finance for over three years. Having launched a reinvigorated effort on how lobbying, committee conflicts, and finance changes Congress, we are excited to bring new financial products so retail investors can invest alongside Congress and reduce information asymmetries.”

The NANC and KRUZ Funds will invest primarily in equity securities of companies that sitting, registered Democratic and Republican members of United States Congress, respectively, and/or their spouses have reported to have invested as analyzed and provided to the Advisor by Unusual Whales. The NANC and KRUZ Funds each have a 0.75% management fee.
