RiskX Investments Broadens Access to Funds Managed by Louis Navellier

NEW YORK, June 4, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- RiskX Investments, LLC (RiskX Investments) and American Independence Financial Services, LLC (American Independence) are currently offering advisors and investors access to both firms' mutual fund products as well as strategies from renowned fund manager Louis Navellier. Both funds would be exclusive to RiskX Investments once the previously-announced merger is completed.

"My colleagues and I have always had great admiration for Louis' process, his thorough fundamental analysis, and the results he produces,"said John Pileggi of American Independence, who would serve as CEO of RiskX Investments pending the closure of the merger.  "In bringing together the funds that Louis managed for our predecessor companies on a single platform, RiskX Investments would be the exclusive mutual fund provider of the risk-intelligent and actively-managed strategies that he pioneered for investors, after the merger is completed."

The Rx Fundamental Growth Fund (FMFGX) utilizes Navellier's quantitative equity strategy that targets growth stocks, and is unconstrained* with regard to equity selection. The fund incorporates an independent, market-based overlay that is designed to reduce equity exposure in deteriorating markets. Investors receive the benefit of an unconstrained growth strategy* along with a methodology that has the potential to move completely out of equities in strong stock market downturns.  When out of the stock market, FMFGX will invest in intermediate-term BBB bond (investment-grade) corporate bonds, where Navellier's firm has extensive expertise.

The American Independence International Alpha Strategies Fund (IMSSX), which is sub-advised by Navellier's firm, aims to provide investors with long-term capital appreciation. The Fund primarily invests in the equity securities of companies located outside the U.S., including emerging markets.

"RiskX Investments is on the cutting edge of addressing the current market environment's complex risk management challenges," said Navellier. "I look forward to continuing to work closely with John and his team to develop competitive solutions for advisors and investors."

Once the merger closes, which is expected to be in September, and pending approval from the funds' boards and shareholders, the union of the two risk-intelligent shops would offer 21 mutual funds and works with a combined $1.1 billion under management. Prior to that time investors will be able to access Navellier's strategies through either the American Independence or Rx Fund platforms.

* FMFGX will not constrain its investments by market capitalization or sector criteria, and may invest in foreign securities, including foreign securities in emerging markets.

An investment in the Rx Fundamental Growth Fund is subject to investment risks, including the possible loss of some or the entire principal amount invested. There can be no assurance that the funds will be successful in meeting their investment objectives.

Investments in bonds are subject to credit, prepayment, call and interest rate risk. As interest rates rise the value of bond prices will decline. Credit risk refers to the loss in the value of a security based on a default in the payment of principle and/or interest of the security, or the perception of the market of such default.

Investments in foreign securities may involve risks such as social and political instability, market illiquidity, exchange-rate fluctuations, a high level of volatility and limited regulation. Investing in emerging markets involves different and greater risks, as these countries are substantially smaller, less liquid and more volatile than securities markets in more developed markets.

Diversification does not ensure a profit or protect against a loss.
