Prospective Shareholder Information

Open an Account

You will need to open a Guggenheim Investments shareholder account to make share transactions – buy, sell or exchange shares of the funds. You can find directions on how to open an account in the open a new Account section of this site. If you wish to invest in A- or C- class shares directly, you will need to appoint a financial professional to your account.  Please download, complete, and print an application from the forms and applications section of our website, or request an account application by calling Client Services at 800.820.0888 or 301.296.5100.

The type of application you will need depends on the type of account you want to open. For example, if you are opening a retirement account, such as an IRA, you will need a different application than you would if you were opening a taxable account. When you call Guggenheim Investments to request an account application, be sure to let the Client Services representative know what type of account you want to open to ensure that you receive the correct application.

Investors should consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of a fund carefully before investing. The fund’s prospectus contains this and other information about the fund. Please read the prospectus carefully before you invest or send money.

Tips to Successfully Complete Your Account Application

  • You must provide each account holder’s Social Security number or Tax ID number and date of birth on the application to avoid a delay in processing.
  • You must provide a street address. (Guggenheim Investments does not accept P.O. Boxes unless accompanied by a residential address.) If any joint owner has a different address than the account registration, please indicate that address on the application.
  • Attach a copy of the trust document when establishing a trust account.
  • When establishing an account for your corporation, partnership or self-directed retirement plan, please indicate the correct account type to ensure proper tax reporting.
