The Fund provides several flexible options to investors. Since all of the Funds’s assets are kept in T-Bills, Repurchase agreements, and Cash. The 100% allocation of total assets into real assets allows investors to earn yield while holding BUILD tokens within the blockchain.

There also arises a conflict of interest in the dealings between BlackRock, Securitize Markets, and some of the project affiliates, since the arrangement may be profitable to all parties. Therefore, it is prudent for prospective investors to perform due diligence and invest with caution.&nbsp;
