1. Global Macro Strategies (Caxton International and CX Macro)
Caxton’s principal activity is trading in the international currency, financial,
commodities, securities and derivatives markets. Caxton follows currencies on a worldwide
basis. Caxton trades primarily in major international currencies but will also engage in
substantial trading in “exotic” or other currencies. Currency positions are initiated and liquidated
primarily in the interbank forward market as well as in the options and futures markets. The
Caxton clients may also trade a wide variety of commodities, including, but not limited to,
energy products, metals and agricultural products, through trading strategies involving futures,
options and other
derivatives, and potentially other commodity interests, in markets worldwide.
Caxton engages in a broad range of fixed income, securities, commodities and derivatives
trading, including U.S. and non-U.S. equity and debt securities (including options, warrants and
other rights with respect thereto and new issue securities) on both a fundamental basis and
separately on the basis of computerized trading programs. Caxton also trades U.S. and non-U.S.
government securities with related financing through repurchase and reverse repurchase
agreements and other financing arrangements (which may be used for other trading instruments
as well). Caxton may engage in securities lending on behalf of the Caxton clients by loaning
securities in the Caxton clients’ portfolios to qualified brokers and dealers. Caxton also pursues
strategies involving interest rate and other swap agreements, futures, and other derivative
products both for purposes of profit objectives as well as risk management. Trading may include
fundamental long/short equity strategies and top-down, “macro” trading. Caxton’s trading
activities may also include credit strategies, as well as relative value strategies involving some or
all of the following: U.S. and non-U.S. government securities; mortgage-backed, asset-backed
and related securities; corporate debt and equity securities; as well as convertibles, warrants,
options and other derivatives and instruments.
Caxton’s global macro trading strategies may involve quantitative trading systems.
Caxton, in its sole discretion, may and usually does, invest for its clients on a leveraged basis.
Additionally, Caxton reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to delegate a portion of its trading
activities to sub-advisors (including affiliates) with similar or unique trading strategies and/or
financial products. The Caxton clients may also invest in other private investment funds
managed or advised by Caxton or an affiliate, related party or third party as described in the
applicable feeder fund’s Explanatory Memorandum or Private Placement Memorandum
(“Memorandum”).
