About RYBKX

Rydex Banking Fund Class A is a mutual fund focused on capital appreciation by investing primarily in companies operating within the banking sector. The fund targets a broad range of banking-related businesses, including commercial banks and their holding companies, making it highly concentrated in the financial industry. Managed by a team at Security Investors, LLC, the fund takes a non-diversified approach, which allows it to allocate a larger portion of its assets into select issuers compared to diversified funds, potentially increasing both return potential and sector-specific risk. With a history dating back to 2004, it offers annual distributions when applicable and maintains a net expense ratio of 1.65%. The fund typically holds a substantial number of individual positions, with recent reports indicating 84 holdings and total assets of approximately $27 million. Rydex Banking Fund Class A serves investors seeking targeted exposure to the banking sector, providing an option to directly participate in the performance trends of the U.S. and global banking industries.
