Brochure Summary

Overview

General Description of Advisory Firm. Engineers Gate Manager LP. Engineers Gate Manager LP (the "Investment Adviser", "we" and "us") is a Delaware limited partnership that was formed in 2013. Our primary office is located in New York, New York. We also have offices located in Westport Connecticut, Santa Monica, California, Delray Beach, Florida, Lexington, Massachusetts, Albuquerque, New Mexico and Brentwood, Tennessee. Our general partner, Engineers Gate GP LLC, is a Delaware limited liability company (the "Investment Adviser General Partner"). Robert Gregory Eisner, indirectly through a wholly owned subsidiary, and Stephen Owen, indirectly through a wholly owned subsidiary, together own a majority interest in the Investment Adviser General Partner. The Investment Adviser General Partner has ultimate responsibility for the management, operations, and investment decisions of the Investment Adviser. Robert Gregory Eisner is a Founding Partner and serves as the Chief Executive Officer of the Investment Adviser. Stephen Owen, PhD is a Founding Portfolio Manager and serves as the Chief Architect of the Investment Adviser. EGMF GP LP. Our registration on Form ADV also covers EGMF GP LP (the "Fund General Partner"), a limited partnership organized under the laws of the state of Delaware. The Fund General Partner is an affiliate of the Investment Adviser and serves as the general partner of Funds (as defined below) that are U.S. partnerships or Cayman Islands exempted limited partnerships. The Fund General Partner's facilities and personnel are provided by the Investment Adviser. EG Manager UK LLP. Our registration on Form ADV also covers EG Manager UK LLP (the "U.K. Sub-Adviser"), a subsidiary of the Investment Adviser structured as a limited liability partnership incorporated under the laws of England and Wales. The U.K. Sub-Adviser, a relying adviser, provides the Investment Adviser with investment research and certain other non-discretionary investment advisory services. The U.K. Sub-Adviser has entered into a hosting services agreement and an appointed representative agreement with Capricorn Fund Managers Limited ("Capricorn"), a company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales, and authorized and regulated by the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority, whereby Capricorn has taken regulatory responsibility for certain activities regulated under the U.K. Financial Services and Markets Act 2000, as amended, conducted by the U.K. Sub-Adviser. Capricorn has also been appointed under a sub-advisory services agreement with the Investment Adviser and has responsibility for the investment of a portion of the assets of the EGMF Master Fund (as defined below), subject to the direction of, and the policies established by, the Investment Adviser. Gavin Boyle (a member of the U.K. Sub-Adviser who has been seconded to Capricorn) is primarily responsible for the day-to-day investment management of the EGMF Master Fund on behalf of Capricorn. References herein to the "Investment Adviser" include the U.K. Sub-Adviser, where relevant, and Capricorn. In addition to its interests in the EGMF Master Fund, EGMF Offshore Ltd. holds the class B share of EG Private Limited (the “U.K. Ltd.”), the parent company of the U.K. Sub-Adviser, which was acquired at no cost and is held by EGMF Offshore Ltd. for regulatory reasons. Such class B share has no economic rights and affords the board of directors of EGMF Offshore Ltd. the right to appoint the director(s) of the U.K. Ltd. For the avoidance of doubt, EGMF Domestic LP invests all of its investable assets in the EGMF Master Fund and has no interest in the U.K. Ltd. Description of Advisory Services. This Brochure generally includes information about us and our relationships with our clients. While much of this Brochure applies to all such clients and affiliates, certain information included herein applies to specific clients or affiliates only. Advisory Services. We serve as the investment adviser with discretionary trading authority to private pooled investment vehicles, the securities of which are offered to investors on a private placement basis (each, a "Fund" and collectively, the "Funds"). In addition, we have engaged Third-Party Sub-Advisers (as defined below) to provide advisory services to a portion of the assets of the EGMF Master Fund. The Funds currently include: ● EGMF Domestic LP, a Delaware limited partnership; ● EGMF Offshore Ltd., a Cayman Islands exempted company; and ● EGMF Master LP, a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership (the "EGMF Master Fund"), which serves as the master fund into which EGMF Domestic LP and EGMF Offshore Ltd. each invest all of their investable assets pursuant to a "master-feeder" structure (except for EGMF Offshore Ltd.’s investment in the Class B share of the U.K. Ltd.). We also have been appointed as a sub-advisor to, and have been delegated investment discretion over the management of, a trading account (the “Trading Account”) on behalf of investment funds managed by an independent SEC-registered investment adviser pursuant to an account management agreement (as amended, the “Account Management Agreement”). As used herein, the term "client" refers to the Funds, which include the EGMF Funds (as defined below), and the Trading Account. Each of EGMF Domestic LP and EGMF Offshore Ltd. is referred to herein as an "EGMF Feeder Fund" and together, the "EGMF Feeder Funds" and collectively with EGMF Master Fund, the “EGMF Funds”. This Brochure does not constitute an offer to sell or solicitation of an offer to buy any securities. The securities of the Funds are offered and sold on a private placement basis under exemptions promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and other applicable state, federal or non-U.S. laws. Significant suitability requirements apply to prospective investors in the Funds, including requirements that they be "accredited investors" as defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, "qualified purchasers" as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or non-"U.S. Persons" as defined in Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act. Persons reviewing this Brochure should not construe this as an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the securities of any of the Funds described herein. Any such offer or solicitation will be made only by means of a confidential private placement memorandum. Investment Strategies and Types of Investments. The investment objective of the Funds is to generate attractive absolute and risk-adjusted returns on invested capital over a multi-year period. We seek to achieve this objective through a research intensive, data-driven quantitative and systematic trading and investment program. Specifically, the Investment Adviser, either directly or by engaging or otherwise obtaining exposure to third-party sub-advisers (each, a “Third-Party Sub-Adviser”)1 with respect to EGMF Master Fund, develops and acquires statistical quantitative techniques and programs and applies them to a large body of data in an effort to isolate and identify potentially profitable trading and investment strategies. We (and any Third-Party Sub-Adviser) may, among other things, seek to identify positive or negative correlations between securities or other instruments, assets, or economic/financial conditions and to profit when prices or values related to those instruments, assets or conditions diverge. We may apply quantitative analysis to datasets in an attempt to identify patterns in historical data and predict the future prices or values of instruments or markets based on these patterns. These strategies may entail the use of proprietary computer software systems and technology in making and managing investments across a broad range of instruments, involving both long and short investment holdings. These opportunities can be extremely short-lived (which necessitates a trading system that can make decisions and effect executions quickly) or can exist for a somewhat longer period (which can allow for more of a focus on strategic timing). Trading and investment strategies may involve trading any asset, instrument or security including, without limitation, publicly traded equities, equity swaps, listed futures, equity options and options on futures, cleared swaps and other derivatives. While our quantitative analysis and implementation of various strategies may be managed by specific personnel within the organization (or by Third-Party Sub-Advisers) from time to time, the Investment Adviser will exercise either overall management and control of such strategies (to the extent managed by our personnel) or levels of oversight consistent with the Investment Adviser's fiduciary duties and other relevant responsibilities (to the extent managed by Third-Party Sub-Advisers). The development of any trading strategy is reliant on the abilities of the Investment Adviser's or a Third-Party Sub-Adviser's personnel and on the technical resources made available to the personnel researching and implementing the strategies. It should also be noted that not necessarily all of our strategies will be employed at the same time, that there is an overlap of markets, instruments, themes, and other attributes among strategies, that each strategy group employs a number of distinct and different sub-strategies, and that we may modify, supplement, discontinue, or substitute strategies and sub-strategies from time to time without notice. In addition, we may at any time employ active or passive hedges for a number of reasons, including risk management. Hedges can be specific to one or more positions or strategies or to the Funds' portfolios as a whole. We may cause the Funds to invest any excess funds in money market instruments,
commercial paper, certificates of deposit, U.S. government obligations, and bankers' acceptances among other instruments or may hold such excess funds in interest-bearing or non-interest bearing bank accounts. We may cause the Funds to reinvest any income earned from such investments in accordance with the relevant Fund's investment program. We may cause the assets of the Funds to be invested, directly or indirectly, on margin or otherwise, in securities, other financial instruments issued by, entered into by or referenced to U.S. or non-U.S. entities and other assets, including, without limitation, capital stock; shares of beneficial interest; partnership interests and similar financial instruments; bonds, notes and debentures (whether subordinated, convertible or otherwise); currencies; commodities; physical and intangible assets; interest rate, currency, commodity, equity and other derivative products, including (i) futures contracts (and options thereon) relating to stock indices, currencies, U.S. government securities and securities of non-U.S. governments, other financial instruments and all other commodities, (ii) swaps, options, swaptions, warrants, caps, collars, floors and forward rate agreements, (iii) spot and forward currency transactions and (iv) agreements relating to or securing such transactions; repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements; loans; accounts and notes receivable and payable held by trade or other creditors; trade acceptances; contract and other claims; executory contracts; participations; mutual funds, exchange traded 1 For the avoidance of doubt, as used in this document, a “Third Party Sub-Adviser” refers to an external sub- adviser appointed by the Investment Adviser to manage (or assist in managing) a portion of the assets of EGMF Master Fund and/or to provide EGMF Master Fund with exposure to such external sub-adviser’s strategy or strategies, and not to the Investment Adviser’s sub-advisory activities with respect to the Trading Account. funds and similar financial instruments; money market funds; obligations of the United States or any non-U.S. government, or any country, state, governmental agency or political subdivision thereof; commercial paper; certificates of deposit; bankers' acceptances; choses in action; trust receipts; and any other obligations and instruments or evidences of indebtedness of whatever kind or nature that exist now or are hereafter created (all such items being called herein "Financial Instruments"); in each case, of any person, whether or not publicly traded or readily marketable. The Investment Adviser or its affiliates employ certain investment teams and/or contract with certain investment consultants (each, an "Investment Team" and together, the "Investment Teams"), each of which will apply quantitative analysis to datasets and subsequently manage, or advise on the management of, certain of the Funds’ assets pursuant to various investment strategies. In addition, the Investment Adviser may contract with certain third-party investment consultants that generate trade lists or trading ideas for execution by the Investment Adviser (any such third party, together with any other third-party investment consultant with which the Investment Adviser contracts to manage, or advise on the management of, certain of the Funds’ assets, an "External Investment Team"). For the avoidance of doubt, any Investment Team (including any External Investment Team) may manage, or advise on the management of, more than one investment strategy with respect to the Funds’ assets, and the term "Investment Team" includes any External Investment Team. We intend to continually review and refine our existing strategies, and to examine new ideas and opportunities. The descriptions set forth in this Brochure of specific strategies in which we may cause the Funds to engage should not be understood to limit in any way the Funds' investment activities. We may cause the Funds to engage in any investment strategy, including strategies not described in this Brochure, that we consider appropriate in order to pursue each Fund's investment objectives. Third-Party Sub-Advisers. With respect to the EGMF Master Fund, the Investment Adviser has entered into, and may from time to time enter into relationships with Third-Party Sub-Advisers to manage (or assist in managing) a portion of the EGMF Master Fund’s assets and/or to provide the EGMF Master Fund with exposure to such Third-Party Sub- Adviser’s strategy or strategies. In connection with these relationships, we may delegate investment discretion over the management of a portion of the EGMF Master Fund's assets to a Third-Party Sub-Adviser, either through the use of a separately managed account or through an investment by the EGMF Master Fund in an investment vehicle managed by such Third-Party Sub-Adviser. Alternatively, the EGMF Master Fund may receive exposure to a Third-Party Sub-Adviser through a derivative instrument or structured product in which an investment vehicle, a separately managed account or another pool of assets otherwise managed by such Third-Party Sub-Adviser, is the reference asset. Upon any such delegation, such Third-Party Sub-Adviser will have discretionary authority over the investment and reinvestment of the portion of the EGMF Master Fund's assets in the relevant managed account or investment vehicle, as applicable. A Third-Party Sub-Adviser may purchase, sell, exchange, convert, short or otherwise trade or deal in any Financial Instruments for such prices and on such terms as such Third-Party Sub- Adviser deems appropriate. The Investment Adviser currently utilizes Third-Party Sub-Advisers on behalf of the EGMF Master Fund. In addition, the Investment Adviser may enter into arrangements with External Investment Teams whereby the Investment Adviser receives the right to execute trades based on such External Investment Teams' trading signals. Such trades will generally be executed on the Investment Adviser 's trading platform by employees of the Investment Adviser, and, as such, the Investment Adviser will retain discretion on matters such as price, execution timing, venue, broker, and other aspects of trade execution. Risk Management. Risk is managed on a continuous basis and measured using quantitative risk management techniques and models based on academic research, among other tools deemed appropriate by us. We have and will continue to develop processes reasonably designed to systematically identify, assess, and prioritize risks which may relate to, without limitation, (i) trading-related issues, (ii) technological issues, (iii) legal/regulatory issues and (iv) personnel- driven issues including rigorous hiring procedures, retention, succession and motivation policies, training and performance feedback. Risk management will also entail the coordinated and economical application of resources to minimize, monitor, and control the probability and/or impact of adverse events or to maximize the realization of opportunities. Risks can come from uncertainty in financial markets, political developments on a global basis, threats from project failures (at any phase in design, development, production, or sustainment life-cycles), legal liabilities, credit risk, accidents, natural disasters as well as deliberate attack from an adversary, or events of uncertain or unpredictable origin. Leverage and Borrowing. The Funds use leverage as part of their investment process and in pursuit of their investment objective. Leverage comes through a variety of sources, including, without limitation, by investing in instruments that may have embedded leverage, the retention of different amounts of cash or cash equivalents in an EGMF Fund, short sales of securities and other Financial Instruments, the use of derivatives, securities lending and repurchase agreements, and any other instruments we may deem appropriate. The Funds may borrow, trade on margin, utilize derivatives and otherwise obtain leverage from U.S. or non-U.S. brokers, banks and others on a secured or unsecured basis. The amount of (direct and/or indirect) borrowing may vary depending on market conditions, as determined appropriate in our discretion, and the amount of leverage utilized may vary across the various Investment Teams and their strategies. Leverage use will vary over time, and there is no cap or other restriction on the type or amount of leverage the Funds may utilize. The amount of leverage the Funds utilize may be significant. The Funds may also borrow for cash management purposes, such as to satisfy redemption requests. Leverage may present opportunities for increasing the total return on investments but may also increase losses. Events that negatively affect the value of investments may be magnified as a result of the use of leverage and may result in substantial losses to the Funds. In particular, portfolio positions and strategies of the Funds may experience significant and rapid losses in times of market disruption or when the predictions of the models are incorrect. In addition, changes in interest rates may have a material adverse effect on the Funds. Trading Vehicles. The Funds may carry out their respective investment program either directly by purchasing securities and other financial instruments or indirectly, for tax, regulatory or other reasons, by investing through one or more trading vehicles organized by the Investment Adviser. Changes in the Investment Program. Subject to applicable law and any express restrictions set forth in each Fund’s governing documents, we may change the Funds' investment strategies or policies at any time and without notice. Wrap Fee Programs. We do not currently participate in any Wrap Fee Programs. Assets Under Management. We manage approximately $10,049,945,680 of client assets, all on a discretionary basis. This amount was calculated as of March 31, 2024 and was calculated on a "regulatory AUM" methodology. We do not manage any assets on a non-discretionary basis.
