Trump Media Launches Separately Managed Accounts
New Partnership Debuts America-First Themed Investment Vehicles
SARASOTA, Fla., April 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Trump Media and Technology Group Corp. (Nasdaq,
NYSE Texas: DJT) (“TMTG” or “the Company”), operator of the social media platform Truth Social, the streaming platform Truth+, and the FinTech brand Truth.Fi, along with Yorkville America Equities, an America-First asset management firm, and Index
Technologies Group (ITG), an originator and provider of thematic investment solutions, today announced that the three firms have created a strategic partnership and launched a new suite of Truth Social-branded Separately Managed Accounts (“SMAs”). These investment strategies offer investors access to curated, thematic investment strategies rooted in American values and priorities.
The initial lineup of SMA strategies includes:
| • |
Faith & Values
|
| • |
Liberty & Security
|
| • |
Energy Independence
|
| • |
Made in America
|
TMTG CEO and Chairman Devin Nunes said, “We’re excited to advance our financial services strategy in conjunction with our new partnership. We’re moving forward with a
series of America First investment products that meet investors’ demand to support a wide range of outstanding, non-woke, and innovative companies across key sectors of the U.S. economy.”
“Yorkville America Equities, TMTG, and ITG bring together deep expertise in asset management, media, and technology to deliver a distinctive investment offering that
meets the evolving demands of today’s investors,” said Troy Rillo, CEO of Yorkville America Equities. “These investment strategies are designed to provide exclusive access to American innovation, aligning capital with companies that reflect the
values and future of this country.”
“At a time when the foundations of American prosperity are shifting, it’s critical that our investment strategies reflect the values that define us,” said Jon DuPrau,
Managing Partner at ITG. “Made in America is more than just a theme- it’s a declaration of support for businesses essential to our economy, national security, and enduring freedoms. These strategies empower investors to align their portfolios with
patriotic and ethical convictions.”
Each strategy is constructed using a proprietary, data-driven framework that combines financial performance with our proprietary values-based metrics. Yorkville America
Equities and ITG apply advanced algorithms to score and rank companies within each theme, identifying leaders in alignment with the strategy’s mission. Portfolios will be rebalanced quarterly to reflect market dynamics and maintain alignment with
thematic goals.
The SMAs will complement a slate of ETFs planned to launch later this year through a partnership between TMTG and Crypto.com. The ETFs and SMAs, both
of which TMTG is planning to invest in via its own cash reserves, are part of a TMTG financial services and FinTech strategy using up to $250 million to be custodied by Charles Schwab.
Potential investors can get more information about the SMAs by emailing [email protected].

Important
assumptions and other important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, our ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of Truth.Fi and our future
collaborations; the possibility that we may be adversely impacted by economic, business, and/or competitive factors; our ability to develop and launch new products and offerings; our ability to obtain regulatory approval; our limited operating
history making it difficult to evaluate our business and prospects; our inability to effectively manage future growth and achieve operational efficiencies; our inability to grow or maintain our active user base; our inability to achieve or maintain
