Trump Media (TMTG) is ramping up its efforts to introduce several exchange-traded funds and separately managed accounts under its new Truth.Fi brand, including products focused on American manufacturing, energy independence and Bitcoin.
The Nasdaq-listed company, which operates the Truth Social and Truth+ streaming platforms, said Thursday it has applied to register trademarks for six investment products: Truth.Fi Made in America ETF and SMA, Truth.Fi US Energy Independence ETF and SMA, and Truth.Fi Bitcoin Plus ETF and SMA.
The move comes after Truth Media’s launch of Truth.Fi just last week, following a trademark application last November. The firm also revealed its plans to allocate up to $250 million of its cash reserves to financial services, including Bitcoin, customized ETFs, and other crypto-related assets.
The company is also partnering with Charles Schwab, a leading publicly traded US brokerage managing over $10 trillion in assets, as its custody provider and financial advisor.
Trump Media CEO—and White House official—Devin Nunes said the goal is to provide an alternative to “woke funds” and address “debanking issues” prevalent in the market.
“We’re exploring a range of ways to differentiate our products, including strategies related to Bitcoin,” Nunes stated.
Trump Media has signed a service agreement and a licensing agreement with Yorkville Advisors affiliate to serve as the Registered Investment Advisor for the new investment vehicles, pending regulatory approvals. Yorkville will lead product development and regulatory compliance efforts.
“Yorkville is pleased to take this next important step with TMTG in its development of America First investment vehicles,” said Yorkville President Mark Angelo. “We greatly value our position as a strategic financial partner to TMTG and are proud to join TMTG in the Truth.Fi movement.”
