specializing in a particular type of advisory service, such as financial planning,
quantitative analysis, or market timing, explain the
nature of that service in
greater detail. If you provide investment advice only with respect to limited
types of investments, explain the type of investment advice you offer and
disclose that your advice is limited to those types of investments.
Trend Capital provides discretionary investment advisory services to its
Advisory Clients by managing and directing the investment and reinvestment
of their assets. As further described in Item 8.A below, the Trend Macro Fund,
ERISA Master, Enhanced Return and Managed Account, subject to applicable
legal, regulatory or investment restrictions, invest to capitalize on fundamental
trends in currencies, interest rates and credit and equity indices in both
developed and emerging markets. Each SP of the Opportunities Funds pursues
its own investment opportunities, as described further in Item 8.A. Although
Trend Capital’s investment advice is generally limited to these types of
investments, it has a broad and flexible investment authority.
individual needs of clients. Explain whether clients may impose restrictions on
investing in certain securities or types of securities.
Trend Capital neither tailors its advisory services to the individual needs of
investors nor accepts investor-imposed investment restrictions with respect to
the Funds. When deemed appropriate for a large or strategic investor, Trend
Capital has established, and may again in the future establish, a Managed
Account that will tailor its investment objectives to those of the specific
investor (including restrictions on investing in certain types of securities)
and/or be subject to different terms and/or fees than those of the Funds. Such
investment objectives, fee arrangements and terms are individually negotiated
and it should be noted that any such Managed Account relationship is generally
subject to a significant account minimum. Historically, Managed Accounts
were generally managed pari passu, subject to applicable legal, regulatory or
investment restrictions, with the Trend Macro Fund, but future Managed
Accounts may have different mandates.
Trend Capital has entered, and may again in the future enter, into letter
agreements or other similar agreements (collectively, "Side Letters") with one
(1) or more investors in the Funds, which provide such investors with
additional and/or different rights (including, without limitation, non-
participation in certain investments due to regulatory or other reasons, currency
denominations, the performance-based compensation and/or management fees,
redemption rights, expense reimbursement from Trend Capital, minimum and
additional subscription amounts, portfolios, information rights and other rights)
than other investors in the Funds. In general, neither Trend Capital nor the
Funds will be required to notify any or all of the other investors in the Funds
of any such Side Letters or any of the rights and/or terms or provisions thereof,
except as specified in Trend Macro Fund’s MFN (most-favored nations) Policy
Statement, which requires that Trend Capital notify certain investors of any
new Side Letters and offer such investors equally favorable terms as those
granted in the new Side Letter. In addition, neither Trend Capital nor the Funds
will be required to offer such additional and/or different rights and/or terms to
any or all of the other investors in the Funds, except as specified in the Trend
Macro Fund MFN Policy Statement.
