Motley Fool to Transform Two Mutual Funds Into ETFs

Evan HarpSep 29, 2021
2021-09-29

Motley Fool announced today that it would be converting two mutual funds into ETFs prior to year-end. The MFAM Global Opportunities Fund (FOOLX) and the MFAM Mid Cap Growth Fund (TMFGX) represent approximately $1 billion in assets.

“We’re bringing ‘the Fool’ back,” said Kelsey Mowrey, president of Motley Fool Asset Management. “While Motley Fool Asset Management is a separate company, Motley Fool is an important part of our name as well as our history and culture.”

These funds will join Motley Fool Asset Management’s current ETF offerings, the Motley Fool 100 ETF (TMFC) and the Motley Fool Small Cap Growth ETF (MFMS). All of Motley Fool Asset Management’s funds and ETFs are housed within the service platform of The RBB Fund, Inc.

“Considering the current environment, ETFs are a more desirable and shareholder friendly structure,” said Arnold Reichman, chairman of the RBB Fund, Inc. Board. “RBB is proud to assist Motley Fool Asset Management in converting the Mutual Funds into ETFs."

CIO Bryan Hinmon oversees the four core pillars that determine the quality of potential investments for actively managed strategies: management & culture, economics of the business; competitive advantage; and trajectory. “This qualitative framework is the foundation for all our actively managed products,” stated Hinmon. “We look forward to offering new investment strategies, including both actively and passively managed solutions, over the coming years.”
