Summary

EMC’s Alpha Plus Program is a multi-asset alternative strategy that seeks to generate long-term absolute returns in any market environment.

Investment Strategy

The Program combines a statistically biased allocation to global equity, interest rate and commodity markets with a tactical overlay of discrete sector specific quantitative models that are responsive to current macro trends. The sector specific models include an unconstrained interest rate strategy, a dynamic commodity strategy and a long/short global financials strategy.

Risk Management

The Program is designed to produce superior risk adjusted returns.

   

Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results. The risk of loss in trading commodity futures, options, and foreign exchange ("forex") is substantial.
