TORONTO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–$NACO #ETFsNEO is proud to welcome Ninepoint Partners LP (“Ninepoint”) back to the NEO Exchange, with the launch of a broad theme of ETFs. The funds began trading today under the symbols NNRG, NAHF, and NACO.

“We’re happy to expand our partnership with NEO as we add to our ETF product lineup,” said James Fox, co-CEO and Managing Partner at Ninepoint. “The launch of these three Ninepoint ETFs makes it easier for investors to better diversify their portfolios, and that’s what Ninepoint is committed to delivering: better diversification.”

The three new Ninepoint ETFs now available on the NEO Exchange include:

Ninepoint Energy Fund (NNRG)

Seeking to achieve long-term capital growth, this Fund invests primarily in equity and equity-related securities of companies that are involved in the exploration, development, production and distribution of oil, gas, coal, or uranium and other related activities in the energy and resource sector.

Ninepoint Alternative Health Fund (NAHF)

The Fund’s objective is to achieve growth by investing primarily in equity securities of companies engaged in nutrition, nutraceuticals, and new forms of medicines and pharmaceutical solutions.

Ninepoint Alternative Credit Opportunities Fund (NACO)

Seeking to generate long-term total returns, this Fund invests in a diversity of Canadian, U.S., and international fixed income securities for short-term and long-term gain.
