DISCLAIMER:
The displayed returns embedded a leverage of over 10 in 2011. The performance data for the period from January to June 2011 represents the performance of Ernest Chan's (former Chairman of the Adviser) personal brokerage account and is not Pool performance. However, the strategies deployed in this account were substantially the same as the initial strategies deployed in the Pool. The performance data for the period from July 2011 onwards represents returns of the Pool net of all fees and expenses. Performance data for the period January 2012 onwards are audited.
In December 2024, Mars FX US LP (an external subadvisor to the Pool) informed its investors that it would no longer accept new investments, and would not honor withdrawal requests, due to delays in receiving payments from a major counterparty. In January 2025, Mars formally announced that it was liquidating. At the time, the Pool's investment in Mars made up approximately 14.45% of its assets. As a result, the Pool decided to segregate its investment in Mars from any subsequent investors effective as of February 1 2025. That means that any investors in the Pool prior to February 1 2025 will be specially allocated any gains, losses or specific expenses associated with the Pool's investment in Mars, and any such investors who elect to withdraw from the Pool will only receive payment on the portion of their capital account represented by the Pool's investment in Mars when the Pool receives its share of the liquidation proceeds from Mars. Any investor who makes any investment in the Pool February 1 2025 onwards will not have an exposure to the Pool's investment in Mars, including in the allocation of gains, losses or specific expenses associated with the Pool's investment in Mars. The Pool did not write down the value of its investment in Mars when it made the decision to side-pocket the investment. For transparency, the Pool maintains separate performance reporting that shows returns both including and excluding the impact of the segregated Mars investment. Complete performance data and detailed exposure information is available to current and prospective investors upon request.
All returns are filed quarterly with the National Futures Association. All investments involve risk, including the loss of principal. There can be no assurance that the Pool will achieve its objectives or that an investor will receive a return of all or part of its investment.
