Veteran-owned mutual fund company pays tribute to the courage, service, and sacrifice of millions of Americans.
NEW YORK, NY, UNITED STATES, November 11, 2026 — On this 11th hour, of the 11th day, of the 11th month, Ausable Funds International, LLC is pausing to recognize and honor the service and sacrifice of America’s Veterans—those currently on duty, and those who have served. This day holds particular significance for the firm, which is itself owned and managed by military combat veterans and focused on global emerging markets.
“America is blessed with spectacular people from all the states across the nation that signed up, suited up, took up arms, and put their lives on the line to support and defend the Constitution of the United States, in both stateside and overseas assignments, especially those of us that served in combat zones over the years. They are a special breed, and we honor their courage, service and sacrifice,” commented Ed Luzine, a former Army intelligence officer with the U.S. Special Operations Command (“SOCOM”) and the Founder and CEO of Ausable Funds.

About Ausable Funds International, LLC:
Ausable Funds is a Female and Hispanic, and service-disabled combat veteran owned business (“SDVOB”) that will launch a new family of mutual funds focused on the global emerging markets, including frontier markets across Latin America, Asia, Europe, and Africa. The firm plans to harness the distinctive skill sets of military veterans and intelligence analysts to build a new type of financial firm—one that offers investors diversity in their investment managers by putting military veterans front and center.
The firm intends to integrate the expertise of veterans, including its Founder, Edmund L. Luzine, Jr.—an experienced Wall Street investment banker, finance professor, think tank scholar, and Army Special Operations intelligence officer—to identify global investment opportunities and deliver financial products and solutions to investors across America and around the world.
Shortly after the 9/11 attacks, then Major Luzine was the second Wall Street investment banker recalled to military duty and deployed downrange to Afghanistan as part of Operation Enduring Freedom.
Ausable Funds sees itself as a natural fit for clients who want to invest and profit in global opportunities while also supporting veterans in business. The firm is currently seeking Wounded Warrior military veterans to fill a range of positions in marketing, operations, and analytics.

Why it matters: Ausable Funds is not just issuing a Veterans Day statement—it is building an investment firm that puts veteran leadership and experience at the core of its strategy. By actively recruiting Wounded Warrior veterans and leveraging military intelligence skills for global market analysis, the firm is creating a model where supporting those who served is not separate from the business mission, but central to it.
