This presentation is provided for informational purposes only and is intended to summarize information about the Trademark Capital Risk Managed Fund, LP (the “Fund”), which is more fully described in the related Private Placement Memorandum and Limited Partnership Agreement. The Fund seeks to generate long-term capital appreciation while attempting to maintain moderate portfolio volatility and lower correlation to broad equity markets.
The general partner and manager of the Fund is Trademark Capital Management Inc., a Georgia limited liability company (the “General Partner”). Investment in the Fund involves significant risks and may result in loss. This presentation does not purport to be all-inclusive or to contain all information that a prospective interested party may desire in investigating the Fund. Prospective investors should conduct their own independent investigation of the Fund, including reviewing the Fund’s Private Placement Memorandum, which describes the Fund’s investment strategy, principal risks, fees and expenses, and other material information. In particular, interested parties should consider the advice of their legal, accounting, tax and other business advisors and such other factors which they consider appropriate in investigating and analyzing the Fund.
The interests described herein have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, the Investment Company Act of 1940, or the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction, and may not be offered or sold except in compliance with applicable securities laws. An investor could lose all or substantially of his or her investment. Investments in the Fund are illiquid, are subject to restrictions on transfer and redemption, and should be viewed as long-term investments. Investors in the Fund must be an “accredited investor.”
The Fund primarily invests in income-producing debt and equity securities through direct investments and institutional private investment funds. As a result, investors are indirectly exposed to the investment strategies, risks, expenses, and operational practices of those underlying funds. The performance of the Fund depends, in part, on the investment decisions and performance of the underlying investment managers. The Fund’s investments in other private investment funds can result in investors indirectly bearing a proportionate share of the fees and expenses charged by those underlying funds in addition to the Fund’s own fees and expenses.
The past performance of the Fund is provided for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the Fund’s future results. There is no assurance that the Fund’s investment objectives will be attained, that the value of the investments will not decline or that there will be any return of capital.
Alpha refers to excess returns earned on an investment above the benchmark return when adjusted for risk. A “lock-up period” is a predetermined time frame during which investors are restricted from selling their shares. The net asset value (NAV) is the value of an entity’s assets less the value of its liabilities. Correlation for a private fund measures how its returns move relative to public markets or other assets, scored from -1 to +1. The direction in which they move can be either positive (the same direction) or negative (the opposite direction).
Alpha and Correlation statistics are presented for informational purposes only. They should not be viewed as a guarantee of future investment performance or future correlation.
SPDR® S&P 500® ETF Trust (SPY): The SPDR® S&P 500® ETF Trust seeks to provide investment results that, before expenses, correspond generally to the price and yield performance of the Standard & Poor’s 500® Index (the “S&P 500® Index”). The S&P 500® Index is a widely recognized benchmark of U.S. large-cap equities, representing approximately 500 of the largest publicly traded companies in the United States across a variety of industries.
iShares Core U.S. Aggregate Bond ETF (AGG): The iShares Core U.S. Aggregate Bond ETF seeks to track the investment results of an index composed of the total U.S. investment-grade bond market. The underlying index, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (the “Index”), is a broad-based benchmark that measures the investment-grade, U.S. dollar-denominated, fixed-rate taxable bond market.
The Fund employs an actively managed investment strategy with investments and risk management techniques that differ materially from SPY and AGG. The historical performance results for the above benchmark ETFs are provided exclusively to provide general comparative information, not for point-by-point comparison purposes. Please Note: (1) performance results do not reflect the impact of taxes; (2) It should not be assumed that account holdings will correspond directly to any such comparative benchmark ETF; and (3) comparative benchmarks may be more or less volatile than the Fund.
