CINCINNATI, Jan. 30, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ultimus Fund Solutions® (Ultimus®), a leading independent provider of full-service, technology-enhanced fund administration, accounting, and investor solutions, is proud to announce its recent award of business, assisting in the launch of eight new actively managed exchange-traded funds (ETFs) for Brookstone Asset Management, a firm whose solutions allow investors to focus on diversification and long term benefits.
Brookstone awarded the business to Ultimus as a result of Ultimus’ consultative approach and ability to plug into the ETF ecosystem of various third-party providers.
