Founded in 1987, Martingale Asset Management, L.P. (“Martingale”) is an equity specialist. Martingale is an
independent, privately-held investment adviser principally owned by its employees. The General Partner of
Martingale is Martingale Asset Management Corporation. The General Partner’s owners include
Martingale’s Executive Committee. Martingale Asset Management Corporation owns 20.7% of Martingale.
Hallmarks of our firm include fundamental research, systematic stock selection, and disciplined portfolio
construction. We manage long-only and long/short equity portfolios including broad core mandates as well
as specific market capitalization and style mandates. Martingale is focused on equity management,
combining strategic investment thinking with quantitative tools to manage our clients’ assets. This
approach allows us to operate with one investment team of professionals to manage portfolios across
various products. We seek to develop close working relationships with our clients as we work to meet their
investment objectives. As of 12/31/23, Martingale’s total firm assets under management were
$5,111,616,089. All assets under management are discretionary.
Martingale invests primarily in equity securities. In seeking to remain fully invested in equities at all times,
in certain circumstances Martingale also invests in derivatives in certain strategies, such as equity index
futures. The major risks of derivatives—which can change dramatically in value—are market risk, credit
risk, liquidity risk, settlement risk, legal risk, and operational risk. Clients are encouraged to contact
Martingale for more information about our use of derivatives in certain strategies. Clients may also restrict
the use of derivatives for their accounts.
Martingale is neither registered with the Commodities Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”) nor the
National Futures Association (“NFA”) as a commodities trading adviser. Pursuant to 17 C.F.R. Section
4.14(a)(8), Martingale filed a Notice of Exemption with the CFTC and NFA in which Martingale represented
that it is exempt from registration as a commodities trading adviser. Martingale’s exemption is due to its
commodities interest trading advice being directed only to certain qualified clients, and because such
advice is solely incidental to its business of providing securities advice. Lastly, Martingale does not hold
itself out as a commodities trading adviser.
Martingale offers investment advisory and supervisory services to separately-managed accounts and to
private pooled investment funds open to qualified investors. The Martingale Investment Trust is a Delaware
statutory trust established for the purpose of providing qualified investors with an opportunity to invest in
one or more series of publicly-traded equity securities. Interests in the Trust are offered in one or more
series (each a “Series”), which may be offered from time to time. Each Series will consist of a different
equity portfolio and pursue unique investment objectives and strategies. Prior to making any investment in
the Trust, qualified prospective investors should carefully review the offering documents of the Trust for a
comprehensive understanding of its terms and conditions. This information is intended as a summary and
is provided for discussion purposes only. It does not constitute an offer, agreement, or binding
commitment by anyone.
In addition, Martingale acts as sub-adviser to registered investment companies, other investment advisers,
and private funds. Our investment advisory services do not differ from those provided to separately-
managed account clients. We employ the same investment process in managing these assets.
In most cases, Martingale holds limited power of attorney to act on a discretionary basis with client funds.
A client’s funds are deposited in either a brokerage firm account that is not affiliated with Martingale or an
account with a custodian bank selected by the client.
Upon request, we can tailor our investment management services to meet individual requirements or
needs. Examples include benchmark selection, estimated risk target, and stock universe selection. Clients
may also impose specific stock or types of stock restrictions as warranted and agreed upon between
Martingale and the client.
