Overview of ROW Asset Management
ROW Asset Management, LLC was formed in Delaware in July 2010. ROW provides discretionary
investment advice to a number of pooled investment vehicles (“Funds”) and separately managed accounts
(“Managed Accounts”) (the Managed Accounts and the Funds are collectively referred to herein as the
“Clients”). The sole owner of ROW is ROW Holdings, LP, and the principal owner of ROW Holdings, LP
is Ryan O’Grady.
Funds
ROW currently advises a number of Funds.
Each Fund is governed by a governing document (each, a “Fund Agreement”) that specifies the
investment guidelines and investment restrictions applicable to each Fund. In addition, investors in
each Fund (“Investors”) were provided with offering documents prior to their investment, which
contain information regarding the intended investment program for such Fund. As applicable, ROW
or an affiliate acts as the General Partner, and/or investment manager to the Funds and provides
investment management and administrative services to the Funds in accordance with the applicable
Fund Agreements and offering materials.
In the future, ROW may provide investment advisory services to additional private funds.
Managed Accounts
ROW has established Managed Accounts for certain large or strategic investors. Each such
Managed Account is managed pursuant to an investment management agreement between the
Managed Account and ROW. To the extent appropriate for a large or strategic investor, ROW may
establish additional separately managed accounts in the future.
Advisory Services Offered
Please see Item 8 of this Brochure for a more detailed description of ROW’s investment strategy, methods
of analysis, the types of securities ROW will generally invest in, and the material risks of loss.
Row currently advises three investment programs: (i) the ROW Diversified program seeks consistent long
term appreciation through active leveraged investing in global forward, futures and options market (“ROW
Diversified Program”); (ii) the ROW Diversified 2X (the “ROW Diversified 2X Program”) seeks the same
objective based on a leveraged version of the ROW Diversified Program; and (iii) the “ROW RV Program”
seeks the same objective as the ROW Diversified Program but can generally be considered as a curated
collection
of non-trend following strategies practiced across global macro markets and is intended to be a
complement to systematic/quantitative strategies that are trend-following in nature.
Funds
ROW generally has broad and flexible investment authority with respect to the Funds. Each Fund’s
investment objective and strategy is set forth in the relevant Fund Agreement and offering
documents. All Investors are provided with a confidential private placement memorandum and are
urged to carefully review those documents. ROW does not tailor its advisory services to the
individual needs of Investors and does not accept Investor-imposed investment restrictions in the
Funds. ROW has full discretionary authority to manage the Funds. Among other things, this means
that ROW is authorized to make purchase and sale decisions for the Funds, subject to the Fund’s
investment objectives and guidelines set forth in its offering documents.
Notwithstanding the above, ROW or the Funds has entered (and may in the future enter) into side
letter arrangements (“Side Letters”) with certain Investors prior to investment. Such Side Letters
include increased liquidity, heightened transparency, heightened reporting and reduced
management fees and incentive fees, and other terms. As a result of such Side Letters, certain
Investors will receive rights, terms and other benefits that other Investors will not receive.
Please note the Funds follow the ROW Diversified Program, ROW Diversified 2X Program or
ROW RV Program.
Managed Accounts
ROW advises the Managed Accounts on a discretionary basis. Managed Accounts are managed
according to (i) strategies that are similar to those of the Funds and/or (ii) customized investment
mandates. However, ROW generally tailors its investment advisory services to the investment
objectives and/or restrictions established by the underlying Managed Account Client. As such, the
investment strategies of the Managed Accounts may differ from those of the Funds.
Wrap Fee Programs
ROW does not participate in wrap fee programs.
Assets Under Management
As of December 31, 2023, ROW manages $2,419,325,639 of Client regulatory assets on a discretionary
basis. ROW does not manage any Client assets on a non-discretionary basis.
