Mr. Lake stated, "Willow Oak Select Fund offers a unique opportunity to access talented niche fund managers while benefiting from a single fee structure and achieving diversification across strategies in a best ideas fund. This is a creative way for us to utilize our skill sets and further build the platform at Willow Oak Asset Management. I thank Mr. Michael Bridge, who serves as the WOSF portfolio advisor, for developing this innovative approach. We look forward to building on our existing partnerships and crafting new partnerships moving forward."
