The Destra Multi-Alternative Fund (NYSE: DMA), for which VGI serves as sub-advisor, announced increased distributions for October and November 2025. The Board approved $0.0925 per share for both months—a vote of confidence in the portfolio’s strategic positioning. 

Dynamic Alpha in Action 

This distribution milestone reflects what happens when you put inflection research at the center of a multi-alternative portfolio. Our Dynamic Alpha process—the same framework that drives our proprietary research across 400+ stocks—continues to shape DMA’s liquid sleeve strategy. 

As Mark Scalzo, our CIO and DMA’s Portfolio Manager, noted in the announcement: we’ve positioned Dynamic Alpha at the portfolio’s core, with alternative credit, real estate, and private equity serving as satellites. It’s a structural innovation that transforms a traditional alternatives portfolio into something more responsive to market inflections. 

The Architecture Matters 

Our multi-strategy approach—combining Hedged Alpha, Buffered Alpha, and Concentrated Alpha strategies—creates optionality in different market conditions. We build a portfolio around identifying fundamental business inflections rather than chasing sector rotations. This has the potential to reflect genuine value creation, over  yield-chasing. 

It isn’t about following the herd into crowded trades. It’s about applying institutional-grade inflection research to a liquid alternatives crossover framework—exactly the kind of structural innovation that sophisticated investors increasingly demand. 

The Bigger Picture 

For VGI, this distribution announcement represents over a decade of innovation in identifying and capitalizing on inflection points through disciplined research and creative structuring. As we continue developing our Dynamic Alpha capabilities, DMA serves as a real-world proving ground for these strategies at institutional scale.
