The Funds
TradeLink Global Equity Master Fund Ltd. (closed to new investors).
The TradeLink Global Equity Program (“Global Equity”) is an Event Arbitrage Strategy which
evaluates corporate actions and the opportunities that arise from these actions. The goal of
Global Equity is to maximize returns through investment and trading in securities and other
instruments, directly or indirectly, in a manner consistent with capital
preservation. There
can be no assurance that Global Equity will achieve its objective. In attempting to achieve that
goal, the Investment Manager employs a disciplined investment process involving
identification and assessment of trading opportunities through quantitative analysis,
formulation of strategies to capture and secure potential profit, and vigilant monitoring to
manage risk properly throughout the process. The Investment Manager attempts to initiate,
track, and exit positions in a risk-averse manner, and closely evaluates the risk/reward
characteristics of each potential securities position before committing capital. Stock index,
interest rate and commodity futures may be traded to achieve these goals.
The Investment Manager has wide latitude to invest or trade Global Equity’s assets and is
not required to obtain the approval of the investors to pursue any strategy or tactic or to
change Global Equity’s emphasis or objectives. The Investment Manager may use margin
borrowings and other leveraging techniques. Global Equity is not limited in the types of
securities or other investment instruments in which it may invest, the types of positions it
may take, the concentration of its investments (by country, sector, industry, company, asset
class or otherwise), the amount of leverage it may employ, or the extent to which it may take
short positions.
TradeLink Master Fund LP.
TradeLink Master Fund LP is a fund-of-funds which allocates its portfolio among different
strategies, certain of which are implemented by TradeLink and others by advisors that have
no affiliation with TradeLink.
TradeLink Funds have broad investment mandates; there are no material limitations on the
instruments that TradeLink trades on behalf of the TradeLink Funds. TradeLink also
provides investment advisory services to Managed Accounts, which pursue strategies like
the above or may pursue different strategies as agreed with TradeLink.
