Investment Objectives

The Fund seeks to generate returns on investment in, trading in or exposure to commodity and financial interests. Using a disciplined rules-based investment process, the Fund captures dominant trends long and short, agnostic to market direction and popular consensus. Risk management and capital allocation is systematic to preserve capital as the strategy’s core objective along with providing returns that are noncorrelated to traditional equity, fixed income and most alternative strategies.

Investment Strategy

Auspice uses a rules-based investment process to allocate capital and provide disciplined risk management. Sector allocation parameters ensure risk diversification and all positions have stringent risk management parameters. The strategy employed by Auspice is indiscriminately long or short, able to capture trends in both up and down markets. This typically results in returns that have a low correlation to traditional equity, fixed income, and real estate investments.
