Managed Futures
Managed Futures refers to an industry of professional money managers known as Commodity Trading Advisors – CTA’s.  These trading advisors seek to increase portfolio exposure to international investments and nonfinancial sectors using various financial instruments. CTA’s take positions based on their goals and experience.
 
An investment in Managed Futures is a good source of diversification for portfolios of equities and bonds.  In times of market uncertainty, diversification in any portfolio is imperative.  Today, CTA’s have the ability to:
 
  • Potential for Reduced Portfolio Volatility Risk
  • Potential to Enhance Portfolio Returns
  • Ability to earn Profit in any Economic Environment
  • Globally Diversify your portfolio

Individual investors looking to diversify his/her portfolio will benefit from our relationship with over 20 of the top trading advisors in the industry. Using our “Diversified Blend Portfolio Model,” we group a collection of non-correlated CTA’s to help you diversify your portfolio.  For our diversified blend customers, we strive to help you meet your goals.

Managed futures trading advisors can benefit from the structural efficiencies of the futures markets in a variety of ways. Also, by using leverage, traders control large dollar amounts in the futures markets with a comparatively small amount of capital.
