CRCM is a limited partnership organized under the laws of the State of Delaware and has
been providing investment advisory services since November 21, 2007. The general partner of
CRCM is CRCM LLC, a Delaware limited liability company that is owned by Chun R. Ding. For
estate planning purposes, in 2019 Mr. Ding conveyed limited partnership interests in CRCM LP
to family trusts while he maintained control of the firm through CRCM LLC.
CRCM provides discretionary investment advisory services to (i) privately offered funds
(the “Funds”) and (ii) persons or entities on a managed account basis (each such arrangement, a
“Managed Account,” and the person(s) or entity(ies) funding a Managed Account, a “Managed
Account Client”). For the purposes of this brochure, a “Client” will refer to a Fund (and not the
investors in a Fund) and/or a Managed Account Client. As used herein, any reference to “or” shall
mean “and/or” and any reference to “including” shall mean “including but not limited to.”
Funds
CRCM serves as investment adviser to each Fund and also serves as the general partner of
the Institutional Onshore Feeder, as defined below. Each Fund is either exempt from registration
as an investment company pursuant to Section 3(c)(1) or Section 3(c)(7) of the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”).
Three of the open-end Funds are organized in a master-feeder structure, consisting of a
U.S. feeder fund, an offshore feeder fund and a master fund (the “Institutional Onshore Feeder,”
the “Institutional Offshore Feeder” and the “Institutional Master Fund,” respectively, and,
collectively, the “Institutional Funds”). Each of the Institutional Onshore Feeder and the
Institutional Offshore Feeder is expected to invest substantially all of its assets in the Institutional
Master Fund. Each Institutional Fund seeks to achieve long-term capital appreciation through
investments in debt and equity securities of companies listed anywhere in the world, as well as
treasury securities, commodities, and digital assets. The Institutional Funds will adopt a global
focus to investing and its investments will be allocated to prominent markets in North America
and Asia, although investments may be made anywhere in the world and, at times, the focus may
shift fully away from prominent markets to other markets and toward real assets such as
commodities and digital assets.
CRCM serves as investment adviser to an open-end fund (the “Fintech Fund”), for which
an affiliate of CRCM, CRCM Fintech GP, LLC (“Fintech GP”), serves as its general partner. The
Fintech Fund seeks to achieve long-term capital appreciation primarily through
investments in
digital assets, instruments to secure rights to future digital asset issuances, and private companies
that issue digital assets, or have a business related to blockchain or the fintech sector.
CRCM launched an additional closed-end fund in 2021 that invests in the securities of
special purpose acquisition companies (“SPAC”) (the “SPAC Fund”), for which an affiliate of
CRCM, CRCM SPAC GP, LLC (“SPAC GP”), serves as its general partner. The SPAC Fund
seeks to achieve growth of principal primarily through investments in the publicly traded shares
and warrants of SPACs and SPAC- related companies.
CRCM also serves as investment adviser to five closed-end funds that invest in non-
publicly traded companies with operations in China and the United States (the “Opportunity Fund
I”, “Opportunity Fund II”, “Opportunity Fund III”, “Opportunity Fund IV”, together the
“Opportunity Funds” and “Frontier Technology Fund I”). Affiliates of CRCM, CRCM
Opportunity GP LLC (“Opportunity GP”), CRCM Opportunity GP II LLC (“Opportunity GP II”),
CRCM Opportunity GP III LLC (“Opportunity GP III”), CRCM Opportunity GP IV LLC
(“Opportunity GP IV”), and CRCM Global Media Fund I GP, LLC (“Frontier Technology Fund I
GP”) serve as the general partner of Opportunity Fund I, Opportunity Fund II, Opportunity Fund
III, Opportunity Fund IV, and Frontier Technology Fund I, respectively. The Opportunity Funds
and Frontier Technology Fund I target private investments.
CRCM also serves as investment adviser to other vehicles including co-investment and
other closed-end special purpose or special investment vehicles (the “SPVs”) including those that
invest in a single non-publicly traded company along with the Opportunity Funds and Frontier
Technology Fund I. Chun R. Ding or CRCM serve as the managing member of these SPVs.
For further details regarding CRCM’s management of the Funds, please see Item 8 below.
Managed Accounts
CRCM works with each of its Managed Account Clients to develop investment guidelines
based upon the Managed Account Client’s specific investment objectives. Managed Account
advisory services are governed by a written agreement (“Managed Account Agreement”) between
CRCM and the Managed Account Client. Managed Account Clients may amend their investment
guidelines as their needs change or impose restrictions on investing in certain securities or types
of securities. Managed Accounts may grant CRCM investment discretion or may be non-
discretionary. As of the date of this brochure, CRCM has no Managed Account clients.
As of December 31, 2023, CRCM managed approximately $546,885,176 on a
discretionary basis.
