Yesterday, Kevin Kinzie, CEO of Excelsior, Minnesota-based LoCorr Funds [profile], unveiled the launch of the LoCorr Hedged Core Fund. LoCorr Fund Management, LLC serves as the new fund's investment advisor, and the new offering also includes five subadvisors: Graham Capital Management, L.P.

Niederhoffer Capital Management, inc., with its Smart Alpha Program; and Revolution Capital Management, LLC.

The LoCorr Hedged Core Fund's inception date was July 10. It comes in two flavors: A shares (LHEAX), with a $2,500 minimum initial investment, a maximum up front load of 575 basis points, a maximum deferred load of 100bps, and an expense ratio of 224bps; and I Shares (LHEIX), with a $100,000 minimum initial investment, no up front or deferred loads, and an expense ratio of 199bps. Both expense ratios bake in a 16bps fee waiver promised through April 30, 2026.

The new mutual fund is powered by a trio of principal strategies: a commodities strategy, a fixed income strategy, and a managed futures strategy.
