Nottingham Shareholder Services Introduces ETF Lighthouse: A Patent-Pending Solution for ETF Share Class Exchanges
September 3, 2025--Automated platform bridges the gap between mutual fund and ETF systems, eliminating next-day market risk and accelerating readiness for the dual shares class structure.
Nottingham Shareholder Services today announced the launch of ETF Lighthouse, a patent-pending platform purpose-built to solve one of the biggest barriers facing fund sponsors preparing for ETF share class exchanges: operational readiness.
Regulators are nearing approval of ETF share class exchanges, but most firms remain unprepared to execute them.

LionShares Launches Debut ETF, TOT, to Capture U.S. Equities' Total Return
September 3, 2025--Newly founded issuer introduces an innovative tax-advantaged solution targeting investors' real return on the U.S. equity market
LionShares, a newly established ETF issuer led by former quantitative trader Sofia Massie, announces today the launch of the LionShares U.S. Equity Total Return ETF (NYSE Arca: TOT).
The actively managed fund is designed to give investors streamlined access to the broad U.S. equity market while aiming to pay no dividends, thereby minimizing tax drag.
TOT aims to provide long-term capital growth by investing in exchange-traded funds that track the broad U.S. equity market, with the flexibility to use futures or options when needed for efficiency. What makes its strategy innovative is that, unlike traditional equity ETFs that pass taxable dividends to shareholders, TOT actively minimizes dividend distributions to eliminate the tax drag that chips away at performance year after year. Through this approach, TOT seeks to help investors keep more of their returns compounding within the fund, removing the need to reinvest dividends and enabling full-time investment.
