Risk Disclosure:
Alternative investment products, including hedge funds and managed futures, are
not for everyone and entail risks that differ from more traditional investments.
When considering alternative investments you should consider the fact that some
products use leverage and other speculative investment practices that may increase
the risk of investment loss, can be illiquid, are not required to provide periodic
pricing or valuation information to investors, may involve complex tax structures
and delays in distributing important tax information, are not subject to the same
regulatory requirements as mutual funds, often charge high fees including incentive
fees, and in many cases have underlying investments that are not transparent and
are known only to the investment manager. With respect to alternative investments
in general, you should be aware that:
- Returns from some alternative investments can be volatile
- There may be a substantial risk of loss: you may lose all or portion of your investment
- The high degree of leverage often attainable in alternative investments can work
against you as well as for you. The use of leverage can lead to large losses as
well as gains
- With respect to single manager products, the manager has total trading authority.
The use of a single manager could mean a lack of diversification and higher risk
- Many alternative investments are subject to substantial expenses that must be offset
by trading profits and other income. A portion of these fees includes payments to
Altegris
- Trading may take place on foreign exchanges that may not offer the same regulatory
protection as US exchanges. Such trading may also entail exchange rate risk
Forward-looking Statements:
Certain portions of this Webinar contain forward-looking statements that are based
on the manager's expectations, estimates, projections and assumptions. Words such
as "expects," "anticipates," "plans," "believes," "estimates" and variations of
these words and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements,
which include but are not limited to projections of revenues, earnings, segment
performance, cash flows, or other corporate events. These statements are not guarantees
of future performance and involve certain risks and uncertainties, which are difficult
to predict. Therefore, actual future results and trends may differ materially from
what is forecast in forward-looking statements due to a variety of factors, including
but not limited to: (a) general U.S. and international political and economic conditions;
(b) the status or outcome of legal and/or regulatory proceedings affecting companies
in which the manager has invested or is attempting to invest; and (c) events and
trends within the industry sectors in which the manager’s investments are concentrated.
All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Webinar or, in
the case of any document referred to or incorporated by reference in the Webinar,
the date of that document. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements
attributable to the manager, or any person acting on the manager, are qualified
by these cautionary statements. The manager does not undertake any obligation to
update or publicly release any revisions to forward-looking statements to reflect
events, circumstances or changes in expectations after the date of this Webinar.
PAST PERFORMANCE IS NOT NECESSARILY INDICATIVE OF FUTURE RESULTS.
A fund’s Offering Memorandum or a manager’s Disclosure Document describes the various
risks and conflicts of interest relating to an investment and to its operations.
You should read those documents carefully to determine whether an investment is
suitable for you in light of, among other things, your financial situation, need
for liquidity, tax situation, and other investments. You should only commit risk
capital to alternative investments. You should obtain investment and tax advice
from your advisors before deciding to invest. The material and any views expressed
herein are provided for information purposes only and should not be construed in
any way as an inducement to make any investment. Before seeking any advisor’s services
or making an investment, investors must thoroughly examine the associated Disclosure
Document or Offering Memorandum.
