BERWYN, Pa., Oct 19, 2009 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- DW | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Leading Canadian asset manager DundeeWealth Inc. ("DundeeWealth" or the "Company") (TSX: DW | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating) today announced the introduction of a series of U.S. registered mutual funds in its Dynamic family of funds. These funds are being made available in the U.S. market through its subsidiary DundeeWealth US, LP ("DundeeWealth US").

Toronto-based DundeeWealth traces its origins through Dynamic Funds(TM), its most visible investment brand, which began as an investment club in 1957.

"The Company's portfolio managers seek to take advantage of opportunities in our changing global economy," said Pete Moran, managing partner at DundeeWealth US.
