__________________________________________

 

Effective January 4, 2022, Howard Capital Management, Inc. (“Howard”) and Heritage Capital Advisors, LLC (“Heritage”) have each been added as a sub-adviser to the TFA Quantitative Fund (the “Fund”).

The section titled Principal Investment Strategies on pages 26 and 43 of the Prospectus are deleted and replaced with the following:

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES:

The Fund’s adviser, Tactical Fund Advisors, LLC (the “Adviser”), delegates the daily management of the Fund’s assets to multiple sub-advisers. The Adviser is responsible for the overall management of the Fund, overseeing the Fund’s sub-advisers and determining the amount of the Fund’s assets that each sub-adviser will manage, which will vary from time to time.

The Fund pursues its objective by investing, under normal circumstances, in long, inverse, leveraged and unleveraged mutual funds and exchange-traded funds (the “Underlying Funds”) focused on major global equity indices, industry sectors and factor styles.

The Fund may invest in inverse funds, which are funds that are designed to provide returns that are the inverse, or opposite of a specific benchmark or index. The Fund may invest in an underlying fund up to the limits permitted by the Investment Company Act of 1940 and the rules thereunder.

The Adviser delegates the daily management of the Fund’s portfolio to the Sub-Advisers, whose models generate signals based on a quantitative analysis. The Sub-Advisers use these signals to invest in the Underlying Funds. The model’s buy, sell, or hold signals are generated by the model’s algorithmic, rules-based systems. The Sub-Advisers' models seek to anticipate a market advance, correction, or decline. For its allocation of the Fund’s assets, each Sub-Adviser determines the final allocations among the Underlying Funds and other assets using short-term technical analysis and momentum indicators that track recent price changes in the Underlying Funds. See Sub-Advisers and Strategies on page 43 of the prospectus for more information on each Sub-Adviser’s investment process.

In managing the Fund’s portfolio, the Fund will engage in frequent trading, resulting in a high portfolio turnover rate.

Howard Capital Management, Inc.

Heritage Capital Advisors, LLC
