Forge First Conservative Alternative Fund

 
 Alternative Mutual Funds

Overview

The objective of the fund is to generate consistent, risk-adjusted net returns over the long term with low correlation to North American equity and credit markets. The Fund uses alternative investment strategies, such as equity long/short, pairs trading, arbitrage trading, thematic trading, the use of derivatives for leverage and/or borrowing for investment purposes, and seeks to achieve its objectives by investing primarily in equities, ETFs, fixed income and listed options in North American markets. During normal market conditions, the Fund’s expected range of aggregate gross exposure is 100% to 175% times its net asset value.

Unique Attributes

  • Long/short strategy using leverage and shorting to improve risk/return

  • Utilizes predominantly fundamental investment methodologies to identify and assess the investment merits of a given security, on an absolute basis and relative to the rest of the portfolio.
